Police have informed the Halifax region that a 53-year-old man considered a high-risk sex offender is living in the area.

Gerald Edmund Pike, 53, was released from a correctional facility after completing a sentence for offences including sexual assault, theft, uttering threats and failure to comply with court orders.

"Pike has a criminal convictions history for violent offences dating back to 1999 that includes convictions for sexual assault, assault, assault causing bodily harm, criminal harassment and uttering threats.

Pike has been assessed as being at a high-risk to re-offend," a statement from the city of Halifax says.

"Pike is on a long-term supervision order and will be required to follow strict conditions including restrictions on any activity that involves contact with children under the age of 18," the release explains.

"He is to abstain from the consumption or possession of alcohol or drugs and is not to possess any weapon, knife or sharp instrument outside his residence."

Citizens are asked to call 902-490-5020 if they believe Pike is violating his release conditions.
