The search continues for a man wanted on charges stemming from an assault against a woman in the capital city in early December.

39-year-old Gerald Connolly is wanted on charges of assault, assault causing bodily harm, choking and forcible confinement.

Police say he is believed to still be in the Northeast Avalon area.

RNC first issued the advisory after they responded to a home in the capital city’s east end on December 9th. A woman in distress was found outside the home. She was taken to hospital for treatment of injuries.

Police say a man fled the scene before they arrived.

Anyone with information on the whereabouts of Gerald Connolly is asked to contact the RNC or Crime Stoppers.
