Aquade Jeffers, Caleb Awe, Enham Nishat - all aged 20 - and 21-year-old Ranei Wilks are all from Leeds. They also have links to areas in Greater Manchester and Merseyside, with 'enquiries being actively carried out' in the regions.
The four men should not be approached, police said. Anyone who spots them is urged to call 999 immediately.
