Dozens of officers in North Texas are working together to track down and arrest auto theft suspects. For a second straight day, officers hit the highways early searching for 26 people wanted for auto thefts. These are the people who keep stealing the cars that we know about. They have active warrants for car thefts. Groups of officers from 15 agencies spread out across Tarrant County, Dallas County, and Johnson County head to neighborhoods and sometimes businesses.
Police say one home belongs to a suspect's girlfriend.
No one was there. They've been on the run. Officers spent six weeks compiling a list of the top auto thieves, including Antwone Parker who is also wanted for attempted murder. He's one of Tarrant County's 10 most wanted. Tarrant County auto thefts peaked in 1991, with 20,000 vehicles stolen.
