Suspect Facing Murder Charge Arrested
San Antonio, TX - The manhunt for Texas fugitive Rosalio
Anthony Barraza is finally over. Barraza was arrested Friday at approximately 5
p.m. in Cadereyta, Jimenez, Nuevo Leon, Mexico.
The 21-year-old fugitive is the alleged gunman in the 2013 murder
of Issac Arrocha. On July 20, 2013, Barraza allegedly shot Arrocha six times in
the chest during an argument leaving him for dead in the middle of the street
on the west side of San Antonio.
The fugitive investigation gained momentum when U.S. Marshals
determined Barraza had fled to Mexico. Further investigation by the Marshals
and Mexican authorities revealed he was located in the city of Cadereyta,
Jimenez, Nuevo Leon, where he was arrested on Friday. Barraza was returned to
the U.S. and is being held in a detention facility in Laredo, Texas, awaiting
extradition back to San Antonio.
David Sligh, United States Marshal for the Western District
of Texas, stated, “The arrest of Rosalio Barraza is a testament to how
effective and valuable our relationships are with our international and
domestic law enforcement partners. Because of these relationships, fleeing the
country proved ineffective for this dangerous fugitive and ultimately resulted
in his capture.”
