A 20-year-old man is wanted by police in connection with drugs and modern slavery offences.

Jack Sanderson, pictured, has been on the run from the police for several weeks, and knows he is a wanted man.

Sanderson is white, 5ft 6in tall, of slim build with short brown hair, and has links to the Blackpool area.

Det Con Adam Gregson, of Blackpool Police, said: “Sanderson knows he is wanted by police and we would urge him to do the right thing and come forward.
