Fabian Gutierrez, a 23-year-old Hispanic man, was killed on October 8, 2017, in the parking lot of an apartment complex on East Stassney Lane in Austin, Texas. Witnesses reported an altercation involving Gutierrez and two other men; those two men fled in a red Dodge Ram diesel truck after Gutierrez was stabbed. He was taken to St. David’s South Austin Medical Clinic and died just before 10 p.m.

Austin police impounded a truck a few hours after the incident and later connected surveillance footage from a convenience store to a suspect. On October 13, 2017, 34-year-old Ricardo Santos was arrested in Big Wells, Texas, by the Lone Star Fugitive Task Force on a warrant for Gutierrez’s murder and booked into Dimmitt County Jail pending extradition to Travis County; bond was set at $1 million. Investigators believed the motive involved a woman, and Santos may have fled toward the Mexican border before his capture.

If anyone has information about the altercation in the East Stassney Lane parking lot or saw the red Dodge Ram diesel truck that night, please share what is known.
