Reward Offered In National Manhunt For Shane O'Brien
A £10,000 reward has been offered as part of a national manhunt for Shane O'Brien, who police want to speak to in connection with the murder of Josh Hanson.
Police said they "urgently" want to speak to 27-year-old O'Brien, of Ladbroke Grove.
A £10,000 reward is now available for information leading to O'Brien's arrest and prosecution.
Officers say although he has links to the Ruislip area, he could be anywhere in the country.
Detective Chief Inspector Noel McHugh, of the Homicide and Major Crime Command, said: "We are very keen to speak to Shane O'Brien as part of our ongoing enquiries and we believe he could be anywhere in the UK.
"I would appeal directly to O'Brien to contact us, or ask that anyone who has seen him or who knows where he is to contact us as well. I do believe someone out there will know where he is.
"A substantial reward is now on offer to anyone with information that leads to O'Brien's arrest and prosecution and we hope this will encourage someone to come forward."
O'Brien is described as a white man, 6ft and of muscular build. He should not be approached by members of the public. Any sightings of him should be reported to police immediately on 999.
Anyone with information about his whereabouts can call the incident room on 020 8785 8099 or contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 or via crimestoppers-uk.org.
