Police are putting up wanted posters in a bid to track down a suspected serial burglar.
Barry Gordon Williamson, 44, is wanted in connection with fourteen burglaries which have taken place in Brighton and Hove, Bexhill, Goring, Worthing and Eastbourne as well as raids in Dorset, Hampshire, Berkshire, Kent and Norfolk.
A £1,000 fine is being offered for information leading to his arrest.
The posters are being exhibited across Brighton and Hove initially and then later across Sussex.
Detective Inspector Carwyn Hughes, from Brighton CID, said: "I would like to hear from anyone who knows of Williamson's whereabouts or has seen him recently.
"He lives a nomadic lifestyle, sometimes sleeping rough, but has been known to charm and befriend women so that he can stay with them for a while."
Anyone with information can contact Sussex Police on 0845 6070999 quoting Operation Mantrap or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.
