WA Police searching for armed and dangerous man

A manhunt is underway for an armed and “very dangerous” 30-year-old man in Western Australia.

Malcolm Stirling Blurton is being sought as part of a police investigation into drug dealing and other crimes.

Acting Police Commissioner Paul Steel said the incidents involved weapons but, “were restricted to a small group of people” and the general public was not in danger.

However, he said Blurton was believed to be in possession of a firearm, was dangerous and may act unpredictably.
