Texas authorities are actively seeking the public's assistance in locating Anthony Dewayne Oliver, a 64-year-old man wanted in Dallas County. Oliver is currently listed as the Featured Fugitive for September on the Texas 10 Most Wanted list. He is wanted on charges of two counts of assault of a family or household member, with a warrant issued against him since January 2026. The Texas Department of Public Safety has designated Oliver as a violent repeat offender with a significant criminal history, including prior convictions for robbery, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, and forgery of a financial instrument. He was previously released from the Texas Department of Criminal Justice in 2019 after serving time for earlier offenses. Physically, Oliver is described as approximately 5 feet 11 inches tall and weighing around 150 pounds. He has distinctive tattoos located on his chest, left wrist, right forearm, and upper right arm. To encourage tips leading to his capture, the reward for information has been increased to $4,000 for qualifying submissions made during September. Law enforcement agencies, including the Texas DPS and local partners, are urging anyone with information to come forward. Tips can be submitted anonymously through several channels, including calling Crime Stoppers at 1-800-252-TIPS (8477), using the tip link on the Texas DPS Texas 10 Most Wanted website, or via the program's Facebook page. Tipsters will receive a unique tip number to track their submission without revealing their identity. This effort is part of a broader initiative by the Texas DPS and the Governor’s Public Safety Office to apprehend high-priority fugitives, sex offenders, and other wanted individuals across the state. As of 2026, these collaborative efforts have already resulted in 53 arrests from the targeted lists, with $74,000 in rewards distributed for successful tips. The public is encouraged to review Oliver’s details on official DPS channels and report any sightings or information immediately.
