In the interest of public safety, the Edmonton Police Service is issuing the following warning. David Adams is a convicted violent sexual offender, and the Edmonton Police Service has reasonable grounds to believe he will commit another violent offence against someone while in the community.

He must live at a residence approved by his supervisor, and must not change that address until he has received written approval from his supervisor.

He must abide by a curfew of 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. daily unless a varied time is approved in writing by his supervisor.

He must not travel out of the City of Edmonton without written approval of his supervisor.

He must not enter into any personal or romantic relationship with a person who is a guardian of children under the age of 16 without written approval from his supervisor.

Anyone with any information about any potential breaches of these conditions by Adams can contact the EPS at 780-423-4567.
