VANCOUVER — A man with a history of convictions for sex crimes and attacks on Ontario women is wanted by Vancouver police for being unlawfully at large.

He served 10 years for sexual assault, sexual assault causing bodily harm and overcoming resistance by choking, a sentence that followed three separate attacks on women in Ontario.
