From CBS Austin:
Jorge Granados, 22, is wanted on charges of Failure to Stop and Render Aid. It comes after a crash on March 21st that killed 5-year-old Iliana Martinez.
"That's hard for any parent, or any family member who has to deal with it," said Deputy U.S. Marshal Brandon Filla.
Filla believes Granados hasn't gone far.
"I believe that there's someone out there who's currently helping this individual hide in the Austin area," he said.
Granados has two known addresses in the Austin area.
"Granados was last known to be residing at the 5300 block of Two Iron St. in Austin, TX as well as another address that is at the 5300 block of Woodland Oaks, and that is an apartment complex in Austin," said Filla.
Officials hope someone will come forward with information.
"Citizens in our community, especially that Southeastern side of Austin along the Pleasant Valley corridor, have known or seen this individual and can help expedite that process and help bring this individual to justice," said Filla.
And they can help give a grieving family some closure. If you have any information about Jorge Granados, contact the U.S. Marshals Service at 1-800-336-0102 or visit usmarshals.gov/tips.

Thoughts? Placing Granados in the Fugitives on TV section since In Pursuit with John Walsh made a Facebook posting about the manhunt yesterday.
Based on the date of the article and the date of the Facebook posting, Granados was still at large at least as of April 10th, 2019.
