A NEWPORT man charged with assaulting an emergency worker has been found and arrested after allegedly breaching his bail conditions.

Curtis Carvalho, 23, of Caerau Road, pleaded not guilty to charges of assaulting an emergency worker in Newport Magistrate's Court on August 13.

The alleged incident took place in the city on August 5.

Mr Carvalho was granted conditional bail, which included a curfew and restrictions on entering Newport except for court appearances.

Mr Carvalho was later subject to a police appeal after he allegedly breached the conditions of his bail.

He has since been found by the police and arrested on August 24.

Gwent Police have not said how or where they found Mr Carvalho, but a spokesman said: "We issued an appeal to locate Curtis Carvalho, 23, from Newport following a breach of his bail conditions after he was charged with assaulting an emergency worker.

"He has been located and arrested."
