SAN ANTONIO, TX — The Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) has added 17-year-old Adiah Namir Roberson to its Texas 10 Most Wanted Fugitives List, seeking the public’s assistance in her capture. Roberson, from San Antonio, is wanted for murder after allegedly shooting and killing a manager at a Sonic Drive-In restaurant in July 2024. In addition to the murder charge, she is wanted in Bexar County for forgery of a government document and faces other charges, including evading arrest, criminal trespass, and possession of marijuana.

Roberson became a wanted fugitive after a warrant for her arrest was issued on July 16, 2024. She is believed to have shot the manager during an altercation at the Sonic Drive-In in San Antonio. The details of the incident are still under investigation, but her alleged involvement has made her a high-priority fugitive.
