Police searching for Barnstaple drug dealer Kevin Squires aka The Corporal

POLICE are hunting for "The Corporal", a Barnstaple man wanted for recall to prison on licence.

Drug dealer Kevin Squires, 53, of Flat 2, Ebberley Lawn, was jailed in 2008 for supplying amphetamines and heroin and was released earlier this year.

After Squires, who likes to be known as "The Corporal", was stopped and searched on Bear Street last month he was recalled to prison but has gone on the run and is currently wanted by police.

Squires, who is on bail and has had police seize cash worth £1,000 from him, was sentenced under the "three strikes" legislation, which means a minimum of seven years imprisonment.
