Police hunt Wigan man who has been on the run from justice for nine months

A Wigan fugitive from justice is still on the run nine months after he did a runner.

Zach Evans was due to appear in court in May last year but failed to attend so an arrest warrant was issued.

But so far the 22-year-old has eluded capture and since then another warrant has been issued.
