Suspect sought in man's death

 

The suspect charged with murder in the Feb. 3 murder of Fred Castillo Anzaldua is still at large.
Jackson County Sheriff Andy Louderback said Robert Garcia Perez, 31, was still on the run.
“He’s not going to run for long,” Louderback predicted, because he has too many things that tie him to Jackson County, including a welding truck.
Louderback said Perez was one of several people who were at a gathering at the house in the 200 block of FM 1683, outside of Ganado, the night Anzaldua was killed.
