Convicted robber from Heywood is wanted

Date published: 09 May 2010


A convicted robber from Heywood is wanted on recall to prison.

Steven Shepherd (born 03/09/1982) of no fixed address has been recalled to prison after breaking the conditions of his licence.

He was jailed for two years in July 2009 for an offence of theft and assault at a supermarket.

Shepherd was released from prison on licence on 01/04/10 but has failed to comply with the conditions.

He has connections to the Heywood area.

PC Theresa Clarke, from Rochdale Spotlight Team said: "Shepherd had his chance to prove he was a responsible member of the community and live by a few simple conditions attached to his release.

"He failed to do this and must go back to prison and serve the rest of his sentence.

"If you have seen him or know where he is, please contact me."

Anyone with information is asked to call police in Rochdale on 0161 856 8420 / 0161 856 8470 or the independent charity Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.
