Dale Poppleton: Man with half an ear wanted by police could be in South Yorkshire

Dale Poppleton, aged 41, is described as a white male, of medium build and 6’1’’ tall. He is very distinctive due to the fact he has half an ear on his right side.

Poppleton is wanted in connection to a serious offence and was last seen in East Yorkshire. He is thought to have connections to Bradford and the north.

West Yorkshire Police say they are actively looking for the 41-year-old but he is “deliberately evading” officers.

Have you seen him? Do you have information about where he may be? Anyone who sees Poppleton is asked not to approach him and instead call police immediately on 999 or 101, quoting crime reference number 13230018345.

Information can also be reported anonymously by calling Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111, quoting the same incident number.
