A MAN with links to St Asaph who was wanted by police has been found and taken into custody after he “replied to his own (wanted) post”.

Christopher Pringle, aged 21 and pictured above, was wanted on warrant.

On Tuesday (October 15), North Wales Police issued an appeal for help in locating Pringle, who also has links to the Holywell area.
