Hernando County deputies are fanning out in search of Brooksville resident Eddie Christopher Torres after the sheriff’s office spotlighted him in its latest “Manhunt Monday” bulletin, flagging a list of violent warrants and noting he is being held on “No Bond.”

The bulletin says Torres is wanted on warrants for burglary of a dwelling with battery, aggravated assault, felony criminal mischief and aggravated battery.

What Deputies Released

In the social media bulletin, investigators list Torres’ height at about 5-foot-8 and his weight at roughly 200 pounds, describing him as having brown hair and brown eyes. The post again outlines the warrants and notes the no-bond status, according to Hernando Sheriff.

How to Report Tips

Anyone with information about Torres’ whereabouts is asked to call the Hernando County Sheriff's Office non-emergency line at (352) 754-6830. Anonymous tips can be submitted to Hernando County Crime Stoppers at 1-866-990-TIPS (8477). The sheriff’s website also offers an online tip portal and other public resources, per the Hernando County Sheriff's Office.

Manhunt Monday in Context

The sheriff’s office has been rolling out similar “Manhunt Monday” posts in recent weeks, using social media to highlight active warrants and nudge residents to speak up. An earlier alert followed the same format, as previously reported by Hoodline.

What Is Still Unclear

The current bulletin does not say where or when the alleged crimes occurred or whether anyone was hurt, and investigators have not publicly released additional details beyond the list of charges and Torres’ description. Authorities say they will update the public as the investigation moves forward, and anyone with tips is urged to contact the sheriff’s office, according to Hernando Sheriff.
