Suspect Facing Murder Charge
San Antonio, TX – Zachary Earl Duncan, 29, was arrested
early this morning by members of the United States Marshals Service Lone Star
Fugitive Task Force (LSFTF), in San Antonio, TX. An arrest warrant was issued
pursuant to an investigation by the San Antonio Police Department (SAPD), where
it is alleged that Duncan committed murder.
Yesterday afternoon, LSFTF officers initiated an
investigation in locating and apprehending Duncan. Early this morning, through
investigative efforts, task force officers determined that Duncan was hiding
out in a mobile home located in the 6700 block of Walzem Road, on the northeast
side of San Antonio. While conducting surveillance, task force officers
observed Duncan drive into the mobile home park. When the vehicle came to a
stop, task force officers approached the vehicle, identified themselves,
removed Duncan from the vehicle, and took him into custody without incident.
On April 30, 2015, the deceased body of a young woman was
discovered by a passerby near the 8700 block of East Evans Road, on the
northeast side of San Antonio. Reports stated that the woman suffered from one
gunshot wound to the head. After a thorough investigation by SAPD Homicide
detectives, an arrest warrant was issued for Duncan in connection with the
murder.
Duncan is currently being held in custody at the Bexar
County Sheriff’s Office.
Robert R. Almonte, United States Marshal for the Western
District of Texas, states, “No matter how long it takes, our task force
officers will continue to work day and night to apprehend these violent
offenders and finally bring them to justice. This was truly a sad incident, but
my hope is that this arrest will bring some closure to the victim’s family.”
