HIGHLIGHT ARREST
JOSE ALBERTO HOMICIDE CALIFORNIA
A Mexican foreign fugitive, wanted for homicide in Mexico, was located and arrested
by officers from Operation FALCON. On the evening of January 18, 2004, in Acambara, Mexico, Jose Alfredo
Alberto-Trujillo, 26, and his brother accosted two victims on the street. The
confrontation was a result of a dispute over some female companions. The
argument resulted in one victim being shot five times and killed. The second
victim attempted to flee but was chased down and strangled to death.
Alberto-Trujillo then fled to the United States
where information was developed that he was hiding out in Salinas, California.
Use of aerial photos and surveillance identified a possible vehicle and
residence which ultimately led to Alberto’s arrest without incident.
Following his arrest, Alberto was processed and flown to the
Mexican border at San Diego, California
where he was turned over to Mexican law enforcement authorities. |
