Fugitive Trevor McEuen Captured Following Multi-Agency Operation

In the early morning hours of June 2, 2025, fugitive Trevor McEuen was arrested following the execution of a coordinated search warrant by the Kaufman County Sheriff’s Office, in collaboration with multiple local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies. The operation was carried out at a residence in Van Zandt County, where McEuen had been evading authorities since early May. McEuen, 33, had been wanted since May 5, 2025, when he removed his court-ordered ankle monitor and fled his residence just hours before his capital murder trial was set to begin. After weeks of investigative work, including surveillance and inter-agency intelligence sharing, law enforcement officials narrowed down McEuen’s location. In the early morning, a tactical unit executed a search warrant at a property in Van Zandt County. McEuen was located inside the residence and taken into custody without incident.

He was immediately transported to the Kaufman County Jail, where he is being held on multiple serious charges, including Capital Murder, five counts of Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon, and Arson.

The Kaufman County Sheriff’s Office expressed gratitude for the assistance provided by the Texas Rangers, Texas Department of Public Safety, Texas Department of Public Safety(Aviation), Texas Department of Corrections(K-9), Texas Parks & Wildlife, US Marshall’s Office(Eastern Division and Northern Division, US Customs and Border Patrol AMO, Henderson County Sheriff’s Office Forney Police Department and Kaufman County Constable’s Office Pct. 1.
