Police in Warwickshire have launched a public appeal to trace a prolific burglar wanted in connection with a robbery and a series of theft-related offences in Nuneaton.
Who is Ryan Knights?
Ryan Knights, aged 29 and from Nuneaton, is a convicted criminal with a recent history of burglary. His previous crime spree led to him being sentenced to 18 months in prison in September 2023. During that spree, he was found guilty of stealing from several local businesses, which included a children's play centre and a restaurant.
New Offences and Police Appeal
Officers from Warwickshire Police now need to speak with Knights regarding a fresh investigation. He is wanted in connection with a robbery and other theft-related incidents that have occurred in the town.
In a social media appeal, the force stated: "We need to speak with 29-year-old Ryan Knights from Nuneaton in connection with a robbery and other theft-related offences in the town."
The public are urged not to approach him but to contact authorities immediately. The police have issued clear instructions on how to report sightings or information.

The police have provided specific contact details for the public:
- If you see Ryan Knights, call 999 immediately and quote crime reference number 23/55559/25.
