As part of the operation, officers attached to all nine South-West Metropolitan Region Police Area Commands – with assistance from specialist units – have been proactively doorknocking to locate individuals who are wanted between Saturday, March 12 and Friday, March 18.
The warrants relate to traffic and transport offences, property crime such as break, enter and steal, prohibited drug-related offences, armed robberies, firearms offences and sexual-related offences.

“We are seeking public assistance and encourage the community to review photographs of wanted individuals posted daily on the NSW Police Force Facebook page and individual South-West Metropolitan Command pages,” Supt Glasser said.
