Wanted for Child Support Delinquency, Aug. 24

The Cook County Sheriff has arrest warrants out for these accused "deadbeat dads" in the south suburbs.

Child support warrants are most often filed when a person neglects to pay child support bills, according to the Cook County Sheriff's Office.

However, warrants may also be issued in other cases, such as when a person doesn't report to a police department to provide a required DNA sample or when he or she doesn't notify authorities of salary increases.
