Police have released a new set of photos featuring different appearances of Hopley, who walked away from a Vancouver halfway house on Nov. 4 while on bail in what’s believed to have been an attempt to avoid trial.
Vancouver police say they believe the 58-year-old is no longer travelling with a cart mentioned in previous notices after officers found a similar item near Main Street and East 8th Avenue.
Police say Hopley is likely travelling on foot and will pay cash for purchases.
Eighteen full-time investigators are assigned to the case, and police say they have reviewed more than 80 tips on Hopley’s possible whereabouts.
Hopley completed a six-year prison term for the 2011 abduction of a three-year-old boy from his home in Sparwood in southeastern B.C. but was arrested again in January for allegedly violating conditions of his release.
