The Stratford Police Service is looking for a man who took off his GPS monitor and left his Stratford home.
Joshua McCann, 41, is currently under a release order and must wear a GPS monitor and abide by a 24-hour curfew.
He was charged with three counts of theft, six counts of breaching probation and possession of property obtained by crime. McCann also has two separate prohibition orders, one for two counts of criminal harassment and three counts of breaching probation, as well as a second one for mischief, prowl at night and breach of probation.
Around 9:30 p.m. Wednesday, police learned he had removed his GPS monitor and left home.
Two days later, someone said they spotted him on Easson Street around 1 p.m. He was reportedly wearing a light green t-shirt and riding a mountain bike.
