Vancouver police have issued a public warning about a violent offender being released back into the community.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Jordan McIntosh was previously released back into the community last September and was serving a conditional sentence order related to two counts of assault and one count of breach of release order from an incident in 2024, police said.<\/p>\n

He was bound by several conditions, which included wearing an ankle monitor.<\/p>\n

However, police said he cut off his ankle monitor and went \u201con the run\u201d on Dec. 4.<\/p>\n

Investigators with the VPD\u2019s Intimate Partner Violence and Risk Assessment Unit then became involved due to McIntosh\u2019s history of violence against women.<\/p>\n

\u201cMcIntosh tried to escape by jumping out of a window,\u201d said VPD Sgt. Adam Donaldson in a release. \u201cFortunately, our officers planned for that scenario, and he was taken into custody with the help of a police dog.\u201d<\/p>\n

McIntosh was held in custody for a breach of conditional sentence order hearing that took place on March 18.<\/p>\n

Police said the court decided to release him back into the community to serve his sentence with another ankle monitor, rather than keep him in custody.<\/p>\n

McIntosh has 49 criminal convictions, including 11 for violence or weapons, police added.<\/p>\n
