Texas authorities have captured their ‘Number 1’ most-wanted illegal alien, a Mexican male with a slew of prior convictions and charges, including heinous sex crimes against children.
On Monday, Governor Greg Abbott heralded the arrest of 38-year-old Victor Hugo Chox Gonzalez.

Gonzalez was apprehended on Thursday in Fort Worth and booked into Tarrant County Jail on charges that include aggravated sexual assault of a child and indecency with a child by sexual contact.
In a press release, the Texas Department of Public Safety explained Gonzalez’s criminal history as follows:
Chox Gonzalez is a criminal illegal immigrant from Mexico with ties to Tarrant County, including the cities of Pantego and Arlington. In 2016, he was convicted of driving while intoxicated with a child under the age of 15 and assault causing bodily injury to a family member. That same year, Chox Gonzalez was removed from the United States. In 2021, he was arrested in Tarrant County for assault and failure to identify/giving false/fictitious information and bonded out of jail. Later that year, warrants were issued out of Tarrant County for his arrest for failure to identify/give false/fictitious information and failure to identify as a fugitive.
While Gonzalez has apparently been on the lam since 2021, the Arlington Police Department issued a warrant corresponding to his latest charges in 2023.
Gonzalez’s apprehension came just days after Texas launched its “10 Most Wanted Criminal Illegal Immigrants” list.
