More information has been released about a parole violator, described as a high risk sex offender, who has now twice been seen in the Quesnel area.
46-year old Gerald McLean was just seen near the Walmart on Monday morning and that was followed by a sighting in the Bouchie Lake area back in early August.
So what happened in between ?
Corporal Dave Tyreman with North District RCMP says he was apparently working on a local farm for room and board under the alias of Rick Wilson.
Tyreman says they believe he may also have left the area briefly on a couple of occasions.
He says the farm owners eventually asked him to leave when they saw a poster of him.
Quesnel RCMP are putting up updated posters around town and Tyreman says anyone who sees McLean should not approach him but instead call 9-1-1.
McLean, convicted of sexually assaulting a child in 2000 and a teenager in 1995, is wanted on a Canada Wide Warrant after walking away from a halfway house in Vancouver.
