Vancouver police are warning the public that a high-risk sex offender will be living in the city.
Kelly Isbister, 53, was released from custody on Friday.
He served an 18-month sentence for one count of possession of child pornography and one count of breach of recognizance.
“Vancouver police believe compelling reasons exist to warn the public that he poses a high risk to children and youth – predominantly boys – in the community,” police said in a statement.
