A Brownsville-area man has been added to the Texas 10 Most Wanted Sex Offenders list.
According to the Texas Department of Public Safety, 40-year-old Luis Flores was been wanted for failing to register as a sex offender since September 2018 when he left his last known address in Los Fresnos, near Brownsville.
Flores was convicted in Dallas County in June 2013 for indecency with a child – sexual contact, after an incident involving a 10-year-old girl.
DPS says Flores also has a criminal history of aggravated robbery, aggravated assault, burglary and drug offenses.
