Texas – Texas authorities have named Anthony Dewayne Oliver, a 64-year-old Dallas man they describe as a violent repeat offender with a lengthy criminal history, this month’s Featured Fugitive on the Texas 10 Most Wanted list.
Authorities have increased the reward for information leading to Oliver’s arrest to $4,000 during September if they receive the tip this month.
Dallas County has wanted Oliver since January 2026, when a judge issued a warrant for his arrest on two counts of assault of a family or household member.
The Texas Department of Public Safety says Oliver has a criminal history dating back to the 1990s. He has convictions for robbery, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and forgery of a financial instrument, and he served prison time for those offenses.
Oliver was released from the Texas Department of Criminal Justice in 2019.
Authorities described Oliver as 5 feet 11 inches tall and weighing approximately 150 pounds. He has tattoos on his chest, left wrist, right forearm and upper right arm.
Texas Crime Stoppers, funded by the Governor’s Public Safety Office, offers cash rewards for information that leads to the arrest of individuals on the Texas 10 Most Wanted lists.
So far in 2026, the Texas Department of Public Safety and other law enforcement agencies have arrested 53 Texas 10 Most Wanted fugitives, sex offenders and criminal illegal immigrants. The arrests included 37 sex offenders and nine gang members, and authorities paid $74,000 in rewards for tips that led to arrests.
To be eligible for a cash reward, tipsters must provide information through an approved Crime Stoppers method.
Tipsters can submit tips by calling 1-800-252-TIPS (8477), through the Texas DPS website by selecting Oliver and clicking the link under his photograph, or through the Texas 10 Most Wanted Facebook page by selecting the “SUBMIT A TIP” link.
