Texas authorities on May 25 captured an international fugitive wanted for murder.

Splendora police, in coordination with federal authorities, arrested 21-year-old Leo Acosta Sanchez, who had been illegally living in the “state and country,” the Splendora Police Department said in a press release.

Sanchez “was known to travel between” Splendora and “her residence in Terrenos,” a residential community advertising cheap land for sale outside Houston.

Police officers caught up with Sanchez during a “routine patrol” and “identified the wanted individual behind the wheel of a vehicle and promptly called for backup.”

“Following the arrival of additional units, a traffic stop was conducted, leading to the immediate arrest of the driver, identified as Leo Acosta Sanchez.

“In a joint effort with the Department of Homeland Security, Mrs. Sanchez was taken into custody to face charges related to the alleged crimes committed.

‘Splendora Police commends the swift and effective collaboration with our Federal partners in ensuring the apprehension of this dangerous individual,” a statement said.

Local police worked with the Department of Homeland Security and Interpol to take Sanchez into custody. She faces charges for her alleged crimes committed outside the United States.
