Teodoro Ted Martinez, 37, of Edinburg, Texas, was taken from his home by four masked men and later found dead in a burning GMC Envoy in rural Edinburg. An autopsy determined he died from multiple gunshot wounds.

Authorities arrested 21-year-old Jorge Arredondo of Edinburg and charged him with capital murder by terroristic threat; court records list a $2 million bond. Investigators say Arredondo was involved in the trade of the burning vehicle and communicated with a person involved in that vehicle trade. The Hidalgo County Sheriff’s Office has also arrested three additional suspects — Nallely Ruby Belmares, Josias Hernandez, and Juan Duenes — all charged with capital murder and having pleaded not guilty.

The Sheriff’s Office continues to investigate and has asked the public for any information that could help the case. If anyone knew Teodoro Martinez or has information about the abduction, the burning GMC Envoy, or the vehicle trade referenced in the investigation, please share what can help officials.
