A CRIMINAL who is currently on the run is being hunted by the police.

Che Isaacs-Neville was convicted of two counts of assault occasioning actual bodily harm, two counts of assault by beating, criminal damage and theft of a motor vehicle on July 28.

During the hearing, Isaacs-Neville fled from the courtroom at Chichester Crown Court today and despite an extensive search, was not found.

He is now wanted for being unlawfully at large, in addition to the previous offences.

The 22-year-old is known to have an address in the Forest Hill area of London, but is also believed to still frequent Hastings and Bexhill.

This is the second time Isaacs-Neville has gone missing, an appeal for information on his whereabouts was issued and he was arrested in Hastings on August 16.

A woman has also been arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender and remains in custody at this time.

Anyone who sees him or who has any information as to his whereabouts is asked to contact DC Ollie Bali at Sussex Police either online or by calling 101 quoting serial 47200035370.
