Summary:

Victor Arevalo along with William Arevalo are wanted for the homicide of 14-year-old Luis Antonio Vidales.

Vital Statistics

Circumstances of Offense:

Authorities say that Victor and William confronted a group of people, including Luis who was walking home from school. That is when the suspects allegedly shot Luis to death with a shotgun. They fled in a pickup truck but a witness saw the truck’s license plate. Victor was quickly arrested while William went on the run and became a fugitive. Victor would be released on bail and unsurprisingly also went on the run. In December of 2005, there was a massive police raid on the members of Victor and William’s gang. Seven members were arrested in connection with 10 homicides and other violent crimes. As of this posting, Victor and William both have active murder warrants and are not in custody, according to Harris County’s court records database. Victor was born in Texas so William was most likely also born there. Considering the amount of time they have been wanted for, they have most likely fled the United States.

Additional Details:

Anyone with information on Victor’s whereabouts should contact Crime Stoppers Of Houston at 713-222-TIPS (8477). Victor should be considered extremely dangerous. Please consider sharing this so that Luis’s family can get justice and answers in their loved one’s case. Luis’s homicide may have been gang related, but if he had gang ties, that is not an excuse for him being murdered or his case not being relevant.
