It is an unfortunate part of life in Texas, but crimes happen daily in the Lone Star State. Thanks the fine men and women in law enforcement, most suspects are eventually arrested and charged for their crimes. However, some escape justice and go on the run.

Thankfully, it's easier than ever to report these monsters (many of whom are wanted for preying on children) and get them back behind bars where they belong.

Three Down, More To Go

Sadly, there's no shortage of criminals who go into hiding after harming children or murdering people. For everyone we catch, more are out there. All we can do is keep our eyes open and report anything or anyone suspicious.

The following men and women are on the run, with The Texas Department of Public Safety asking for help in arresting these criminals. There's a tip line for those wishing to help find these individuals: 1-800-252-TIPS (8477).

You can also submit tips on TDPS's Facebook or on their app. All are encouraged to report when they see these fugitives, but not to approach, as all of these fugitives from the law should be considered armed and dangerous.
