Reward increased to $4,000 for Texas Most Wanted Sex Offender
AUSTIN – The reward for Marco Antonio Toscano, a Texas 10 Most Wanted
Sex Offender and this month’s featured fugitive, has been increased to $4,000 for information leading to his capture if the tip comes in during the month of September. Toscano, 34, is wanted for failure to register as a sex offender and a parole violation.
Toscano has been wanted since September 2018, when he absconded from his last known address in El Paso. He has ties to the San Angelo area, as well as southern California. In 2006, Toscano was convicted in Tom Green County of indecency with a child-sexual contact after an incident involving a 9-year-old girl. In 2015, he was convicted in Edwards County of unlawful possession of a firearm by a felon.
Toscano is 5 feet 6 inches tall and weighs approximately 195 pounds. He has tattoos on his abdomen, back, neck, left ear, left hand and both arms. For more information or updates in the event of his arrest, view his wanted bulletin.

Justice Division will generate additional tips. The higher reward will only be paid if the tip comes in the same month the fugitive is featured. So far in 2020, Texas Crime Stoppers has paid $20,000 in rewards for anonymous tips that resulted in arrests.
To be eligible for cash rewards, tipsters MUST provide information to authorities using one of the following methods:
· Call the Crime Stoppers hotline at 1-800-252TIPS (8477).
· Submit a web tip through the DPS website by selecting the fugitive you have information about, then clicking on the link under the photo.
Submit a Facebook tip by clicking the “SUBMIT A TIP” link (under the “About” section).
All tips are anonymous, regardless of how they are submitted, and tipsters will be provided a tip number instead of using a name.
DPS investigators work with local law enforcement agencies to select fugitives for the Texas 10 Most Wanted Fugitive and Sex Offender lists. You can find the current lists — with photos — on the DPS website. Do not attempt to apprehend
