Police are appealing for information to help find a man considered to be a risk to the public.
Derek Mackay, 32, from Invergordon in Easter Ross, failed to attend court and is now deemed “unlawfully at large”, Police Scotland said.
He is described as 5ft 8ins, with a medium build, short brown hair and a local accent.
Officers believe he may also travel throughout the Highlands.
Detective Inspector Scott MacDonald, said: “We want to trace Derek Mackay as quickly as possible and I’d be interested to hear from anyone who has information.
“I would like to reassure people that considerable and extensive efforts are being put into locating him.
“I would ask people not approach Mr Mackay if you believe you have seen him. Instead please call Police Scotland as soon as you can.”
Police Scotland can be contacted on the 101 number.
