Police appeal to find wanted Oldham man

Police are appealing for the public's help to trace a man from Oldham who is wanted on recall to prison.

Jordan Whitehead (pictured) was released from prison in March 2021 after being jailed in October 2019 for possession of a bladed article.

The 32-year-old has since breached the terms of his licence and is now wanted on recall to prison.

Whitehead is known to have links to the Oldham area. 

Anyone with information about Whitehead's whereabouts should contact police on 0161 856 8975 or the independent charity Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111. Reports can also be made through the GMP website.
