Jose Hernandez, 36, of Anthony, New Mexico, was fatally shot and found dead at 301 Los Traques Street on March 12, 2022. The Doña Ana County Sheriff’s Office opened an investigation and identified a primary suspect, Alejandro Salas, also known as Nano.

Salas was the subject of a manhunt and was taken into custody in Texas on June 15, 2022, by members of the Anthony Police Department working with the Lone Star Fugitive Task Force. The arrest followed cooperative efforts between multiple agencies.

Friends and neighbors remembered Hernandez as a good man; his death had a deep impact on the small community. Does anyone who knew Jose or who was in the area that day have information that could shed light on what happened?
