Carlos Alberto Zuniga, 47, was found shot and dead on Bunnell Street near Creamer’s Field in Fairbanks at about 11:30 p.m. on May 4, 2017. Neighbors reported hearing gunfire; first responders discovered his body and efforts to save him were unsuccessful. His death was the third homicide in Fairbanks in roughly three weeks, leaving the community on edge.

Within 72 hours investigators named a suspect and issued a first-degree murder warrant for 29-year-old Joseph Vance Arabie. Authorities described Arabie as about 6 feet 1 inch, 185 pounds, with brown hair and eyes and a distinctive neck tattoo resembling a ring of spikes; he was believed to be armed and dangerous and last seen in South Fairbanks. No motive or link to the other recent killings was announced.

If anyone knew Carlos Alberto Zuniga, his movements that night, or has information about Joseph Vance Arabie’s whereabouts, contact investigators with what can help this case.
