Police have launched an urgent manhunt for convicted killer Shaun Walker, who is currently on the run after breaching his licence conditions. The public has been warned not to approach Walker but to contact the authorities immediately if they see him.

Walker, 29, was imprisoned for fatally headbutting Barry Thomas, 45, in a dispute over a moped back in June 2013. The incident occurred during a social gathering in Newport, where Walker punched Mr. Thomas several times before following him up the street to continue the attack. Mr. Thomas tragically passed away two days later due to a catastrophic brain haemorrhage.
