Recently, we talked about the most wanted murderer in Texas named Matthew Edgar. Thankfully, just days after the article was posted, Edgar was captured after his extended run from the law. However, there are people in the state of Texas who are still on the run for the crime of murder.

These seven individuals are currently wanted by the state, with some having other charges in addition to the charge of murder. If you have seen any of these individuals, you are reminded to not attempt to apprehend them yourself. Texas DPS officials say they are to be considered armed and dangerous.

There are also cash rewards for any tips that lead to the capture of these criminals.
