Top 10 Texas Most Wanted Offender Captured In California

FORT WORTH (CBSDFW.COM) - One of Texas' most wanted sex offenders has been captured in California and is waiting to be brought back to Texas.

Leo Colston was arrested in Los Angeles on July 10, about a month after he'd been added to the Texas 10 Most Wanted Sex Offender list.

Colston was convicted on Indecency with a Child by Sexual Contact in 2002 for an encounter with a 7-year-old girl.

Colston apparently moved around quite a bit in 2013, but failed to register as a sex offender, triggering warrants for his arrest in Nacogdoches in May and Los Angeles in August.

Colston is originally from Nacogdoches and will be brought back to Texas to face charges.
