He was charged and bailed but failed to attend Sefton Magistrates Court later that month.
He is white, 5ft 8in, of medium build with fair hair and blue eyes.
Anyone who has seen Jones or has any information on his whereabouts is asked to contact the social media desk @MerPolCC, call 101 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
