Merseyside police have confirmed they have charged a wanted man.
Lewis Dunn is accused of assaulting a woman and leaving her with serious injuries . A manhunt for the 27-year-old was launched by officers earlier this month, after police received reports of a 21-year-old woman being attacked.
Police launched a search, sharing Dunn's image saying he was wanted in connection with a domestic assault where a woman suffered "significant and extensive injuries." The attack happened on February 22.
