CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — A man wanted out of Aransas Pass on child sex charges was caught by US Marshals in Louisiana Monday morning.
Lamonte Morris, 38, who had been on the run since June, was found in Orleans Parish in Louisiana and charged with aggravated sexual assault of a child, officials with the Aransas Pass Police Department said.
Aransas Pass detectives said Morris had a private security license and a job that allowed him access to underage children. Officials worry there may be more victims.
