You can run but you can't hide. Fortunately, he didn't make his way across the border to disappear into the throngs of immigrants milling around the border with Texas, only to disappear into the ether.

Authorities on Tuesday apprehended an individual suspected of killing five people in Cleveland, Texas, following a Friday evening altercation.
Authorities arrested Francisco Oropesa without incident on Tuesday evening, NBC News reported, citing the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office.
His arrest marks an end to the manhunt that had baffled law enforcement for days. Authorities indicated earlier this week that they had "zero leads" as to his whereabouts.
As of Monday, it was believed that Oropesa had slipped past a network of roadblocks in the Cleveland area, despite extensive efforts by law enforcement to contain him within a set perimeter.
During the manhunt, reports emerged that the fugitive had been deported four times, twice in 2009, and again in 2012 and 2016.
The manhunt ensued following Oropesa's alleged killing of five of his neighbors after reportedly being asked to stop shooting his firearm. Authorities indicated that four adults were found dead at the scene while one child died at the hospital later.

Did they find his AR 15 ? That seems the bad weapon to kill with.
