Police have issued a Canada-wide warrant for the arrest of a 27-year-old man who they say could be dangerous if approached.

Karl Eldon Lerat is about six-feet-two-inches tall and weighs about 210 pounds. He has short black hair, brown eyes and tattoos on both of his arms and his neck.

The tattoos on his neck go up to the jawline and include the word "fabulous" in script, in the front and middle.

Police say anyone who sees Lerat should not engage with him as he has demonstrated violent behaviour.

Instead, members of the public are asked to contact Regina Police Service at 306-777-6500 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 if they have information that could help locate Lerat.

Police say he is in breach of a statutory release.
