A Port Neches man sought on an outstanding warrant for sexual assault of a child has been on the run for more than two-and-a-half years.

The Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office is seeking the public’s help in locating Jose Ornerio Ramos, 40.

“We’ve been looking for him and tracking him since the warrant came out,” Capt. Crystal Holmes said. “He’s moved around a lot. We tracked him to parts of Texas and Mexico and believe some of his family is facilitating this movement.”
