A $250 cash reward is being offered to the first person who provides information leading to the arrest of 18-year-old Austin Ray Carpenter by June 29.

Carpenter is wanted for his role in a recent sexual assault, during which he is accused of raping a 16-year-old girl in a local motel room. Carpenter's alleged accomplice, 22-year-old Angel Hernandez, was arrested on Saturday for sexual assault of a child. He was released on Sunday after posting a $75,000 bond.

Austin Carpenter has a large tattoo on his neck.
Carpenter is 5'10" and weighs 150 pounds. He has brown hair and hazel eyes. He also has a rather large tattoo on the right side of his neck that looks like the Roman numeral II.

A warrant for second-degree sexual assault of a child has been issued for his arrest. Those with information on Carpenter can submit a tip by calling the 24/7 hotline at 325-658-HELP (4357), texting CSSA plus your message to 274637 or by submitting a web tip at http://bit.ly/CrimeStoppersWebTip.
