North Yorkshire Police has issued an appeal this afternoon to locate a wanted man from Harrogate.

Police said the man, Matthew Tuck, is believed to be staying in the Harrogate area.

Tuck, 29, was jailed for 18 months last year for spitting at a police officer after being arrested for wielding a knife in Harrogate town centre.

He took out the blade during an argument with two men outside a pizza shop on Station Parade.

In a statement today, police said he is “wanted on prison recall”, adding:

“We have carried out extensive enquiries to locate him and are now appealing to anyone who has seen him or knows where he is now to get in touch.”


Officers have urged people with an immediate sighting of Tuck or those that know where is to call 999.

Police added:

“You can pass information to Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111, or via their website. Or you can call us on 101 and pass information to the North Yorkshire Police Force Control Room.”
