Mounties in the northeastern B.C. city of Fort St. John are seeking public assistance finding a man wanted for multiple sex offences and is “actively avoiding police.”

Warrants are out for 22-year-old Anthony Collins for one count each of sexual assault, sexual interference, making or publishing child pornography, and possessing child pornography.

He is also wanted for breach of a release order and a failure to appear on April 3.

The charges stem from alleged incidents in the Fort St. John area between October and November 2020.

Collins is originally from Chetwynd, and had been out on a release order since Sept. 20 last year, with a court date in March 2023 that he failed to attend, Const. Chad Neustaeter told Global News.
