Most Wanted Sex Offender Caught in East Texas

TYLER – One of the state 10 most wanted sex offenders, Sean Michael Price, 27, has been captured by the Texas Department of Public Safety in Tyler. An investigation led DPS Criminal Investigations Division agents and Highway Patrol troopers to a Tyler residence where the suspect was arrested this week for failure to register as a sex offender and probation violation. Price’s last known residence was in Henderson County, and a failure to register as a sex offender warrant was issued by the Gun Barrel City Police Department in April. Price was originally convicted of rape of a child in the state of Washington in 2001.
