Burleson police have rolled out their February Top Ten Most Wanted list and are asking locals to help track down suspects facing accusations that range from theft and forgery to burglary and fraud. The department shared the new lineup last Friday and noted the list was current as of Sunday. Officers cautioned that some of the people named could be armed and dangerous and stressed that residents should pass along tips instead of trying to intervene themselves. The monthly update is part of an ongoing effort to tap public help on open cases and outstanding warrants.
In a post from the Burleson Police Department, the agency shared photos, names, and alleged charges for those on the list, and reminded followers that the Top Ten Most Wanted is refreshed on the first of every month. The announcement also listed the department’s tip email, [email protected], and noted that residents can send information by phone or through Crime Stoppers.
How To Report A Tip
According to the City of Burleson, residents can use the police non-emergency tip line at 817-426-9903. The department’s headquarters is located at 1161 SW Wilshire Blvd. For those who want to stay anonymous, Crime Stoppers of Tarrant County can be reached at 817-469-8477, and tips can also be submitted through its online portal.
Who’s On The List
The latest roster from the department names David Gomez (fraud), Davaun Gray (theft), Cristofor Calin (theft), Desmond James (theft), Mark Nelson (theft), Richard Hrejsa (forgery), David Smith (forgery), Michael Mullane (burglary), Tayvohn Grismore-Glover (evading) and Jonathan Pond (failure to register as a sex offender). The post notes the list was current as of last Sunday. It also highlights Juanrico Guevara separately as number 11 for failure to register, which suggests the department keeps an extended pool of persons of interest behind each monthly Top Ten.
Police Caution
Officers are urging the public not to confront or attempt to arrest anyone on the list. Instead, residents are asked to route information to police or Crime Stoppers so that trained personnel can safely follow up. The department says community tips help them close cases more quickly while protecting both residents and officers.
Local Context
This kind of social media push is not new for Burleson police. The department has leaned on creative, public-facing "most wanted" style posts before to draw attention and even boost other city initiatives. A previous playful "Most Wanted" dog adoption promo showed how the same online reach can shift from lighthearted engagement to more serious public safety goals when needed, per Hoodline.
