It’s a brand new year, but for law enforcement, the job is the same as last year. Keeping our city and county safe. And that means keeping the “bad guys” off the streets. Lubbock-area law enforcement ended the year and started the new year by looking for criminals, including those who have made their way to the top 10 list.

And just like last you, you can help law enforcement get these criminals off our streets.

How You Can Help With Locating These Fugitives in Lubbock

Below, you will find pictures and information about the Ten Most Wanted Fugitives in Lubbock. Each month, we will post the Top Ten fugitives of that month. Law enforcement asks that you simply contact them if you know where any of these fugitives may be located. Do not attempt to apprehend them yourself. Leave that to the pros. You can use the Stop Lubbock Gangs website to submit tips and learn more about gangs operating in and around Lubbock.

What Is the Anti-Gang Unit?

The West Texas Anti-Gang Unit is busy cleaning up the streets of Lubbock by targeting gangs and organized crime. And they are doing a great job. But law enforcement in our area needs your help to help locate these dangerous criminals. One of the ways you can help is by paying attention to the Top Ten list released by the Lubbock County Sheriff’s Department and the West Texas Anti-Gang Unit. The West Texas Anti-Gang Unit and the site StopLubbockGangs.org, is an multi-agency organization including the Lubbock Sheriff’s Department, the DOJ, Homeland Security, Lubbock Police, and other organizations that work together to stop the gang threat in our area.

Below are this month’s Top Ten Most Wanted.
