AMARILLO, TEXAS -- The U.S. Marshals Service needs your help finding two wanted fugitives from the Panhandle.

Erasmo Mendoza is wanted out of Moore County and Jose Vasquez is wanted out of Potter and Randall Counties. Both fugitives are charged with aggravated sexual assault of a child.

Mendoza was arrested on the charges, posted bond and left the Dumas area. He was last seen driving his truck.

Vasquez, who considers himself a ladies man, fled the area after finding out charges were filed against him. Authorities indicate that Vasquez takes good care of his appearance and may try to change it.

Both fugitives could be anywhere in the State and surrounding areas. U.S. Marshals say Mendoza and Vasquez are violent offenders and should be considered armed and dangerous.

If you have any information regarding the whereabouts of either Mendoza or Vasquez, you are asked to call Crime Stoppers or your local law enforcement.
