Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³»­police are searching for a man with a history of "offences of a sexual nature against children."

Randall Hopley, 58, didn't return to his halfway house on Saturday, Nov. 4, according to the Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³»­Police Department (VPD). He was last seen at 3 p.m. that day; the VPD are now searching for the man.

"Hopley has a history of sexual assault, assault, and property crime convictions," states the VPD. "He has committed three offences of a sexual nature against children in the past."

In 2011, Hopley abducted a three-year-old boy for several days before returning him. He served the full term of his sentence and was released a few years ago, but was kept under supervision.

Earlier this year he was behind bars for a period after charges of breaching his supervision orders.

Police state Hopley was last seen wearing a black coat, black pants, and a black hat. He's described as 5'9" and 176 lbs. He has brown hair and hazel-coloured eyes.

The VPD is asking anyone who sees Hopley to call 911 immediately.
