Lordshill, Southampton, SO16
Description
Police say a convicted sex offender who went missing from Southampton has been found in Poole.
Police launched a hunt for 49-year-old Leonard Ayres, who has schizophrenia.
Officers urged the public not to approach him as they say he has no medication with him, which could "cause him to act in an unreasonable manner".
Police say Leonard has been convicted of sexual offences in the past.
He was last seen at his supervised living accommodation at 9.45pm on Sunday night.
He lives in Lordshill, Hampshire but also has links to Poole.
Leonard is managed under the multi-agency public protection arrangements.
He was convicted of sex offences in 2001, and in 2006 was convicted of sexual activity with a child, and has served sentences for the offences.
