REYNOLDSBURG, Ohio -- Reynoldsburg police have obtained arrest warrants on two males who are suspects in the August 2009 murder of a Columbus man.
NBC 4 reported with the FAST FACTS from Reynoldsburg police.
The Reynoldsburg Division of Police on Monday obtained arrest warrants on two individuals suspected of murdering 36-year-old Omar Armando Casillas-Castenado during late August 2009.
Officers were called to the area of 1200 Rosehill Rd. at about 2:50 p.m. Friday, Aug. 21, on reports of a suspicious vehicle. Officers found Casillas-Castenado's decomposing body inside of a bin of sorts.
The suspects, who were believed to be in the country illegally, reportedly had fled the country, returning to Mexico, shortly after the murder.
Casillas-Castenado is from Mexico and was an illegal immigrant. He also was known as Jose Huerta and Pepe.
Antonio Martinez-Nunez was detained by federal agents in Texas as he attempted to reenter the county Sunday, Feb. 21.
An alert put in place by local agents kept Martinez-Nunez in custody until a Reynoldsburg detective was able to conduct an interview.
At the conclusion of the interview, warrants for murder were issued for Martinez-Nunez and Miguel Ahumada.
Martinez-Nunez was to be extradited back to Ohio.
Ahumada is still believed to be in Mexico.
