Big reward offered for one of Texas' most wanted

AUSTIN, TX Texas Crime Stoppers, along with Fort Stockton Crime Stoppers are offering a combined reward of $8,500 for information leading to the arrest of Alfonso Quiroz, 33, of Fort Stockton.

Quiroz is wanted for murder in connection with a May 17, 2007, killing south of Fort Stockton, in which a man was found shot to death on the side of a road. Quiroz was arrested two days later and charged with murder and unlawful possession of a firearm.

Quiroz was released after posting $600,000 bond, but failed to appear on his scheduled court date. He's been on the run ever since.

Quiroz has a scar on his forehead and several tattoos, including one on his inside left forearm that says "LIFE/DEATH" and a scroll on his outside upper left arm that says "ONLY GOD WILL JUDGE ME."
