Police have thanked the public for their help in finding a convicted drug dealer who went missing.

Steven Forster, 35, was sentenced to 27 months in prison on October 2015, at Truro Crown Court, for supplying and possessing controlled drugs.

He was released on licence from HMP Channings Wood on December 5 last year, but then breached his release conditions and was recalled to prison.

Police officers carried out door-to-door enquiries to find and arrest Forster and members of the public were asked to report any sightings.

He has links to Camborne, St Austell, Liskeard and Callington but could be anywhere in the county.

A police spokesperson said: "Forster has now been located and police would like to thank the public for their assistance."
