HOUSTON, TX -- Crime Stoppers and the Gulf Coast Violent Offenders and Fugitive Task Force need the public's assistance locating fugitive Joselito Martinez, who is wanted for Murder.
On Friday, May 8, 2020, fugitive Joselito Martinez was involved in an argument in the 15100 block of the North Freeway in Harris County, Texas. During the incident, the fugitive approached the victim and shot him after they exchanged words. Police do not believe that the fugitive and victim knew each other before the incident, and that the motivation behind the shooting was a verbal disagreement that occurred earlier that night.
Fugitive Joselito Martinez is a Hispanic male, 38 years old, approximately 6'01”, 167 lbs., with brown eyes and short black hair. He has a prior conviction in Harris County for felony aggravated assault in 2006.
Crime Stoppers may pay up to $5,000 for information leading to the identification, charging and/or arrest of the suspect in this case. Information may be reported by calling 713-222-TIPS (8477), submitted online at www.crimestoppers.org or through the Crime Stoppers mobile app. Only tips and calls DIRECTLY TO Crime Stoppers are anonymous and eligible for a cash reward.

Thoughts? As of this posting date (June 1st, 2020, Martinez still shows as having a warrant/still not in custody according to a search of Harris County's online criminal court records: www.hcdistrictclerk.com/edocs/public/CaseDetails.aspx?Get=waYLDZxybnwMgAARH7X/Tj63MG6ZZytIWv9AY80MpabfkbSIcifHHJfztpk+NXM0Xl3IinxmrByfTYKSVg3aJKTHOBiBuQh4yxEIKUKLSrDokRnxbvP7ltdDpNRzioBUbQuxB3vB09t+lJw02jS0MLDhMsLwbU5+hl0uiT+35apklFkRehhbHg==
As far as the case itself, additional articles identify the victim as Cesar Edgardo Flores-Arias and that the fight that lead to his tragic death actually happened at a bar. After allegedly shooting Flores-Arias, Martinez returned to the bar counter, grabbed a pot of beer, and walked out of the place while taking long gulps of the drink before escaping in his truck. This in my opinion shows a dangerous alleged psychopath that needs to be caught immediately. Also I apologize that the article's headline is "Hispanic wanted for gunshot murder in bar"; especially considering according to court records Martinez was born in Texas. The site seems relatively normal besides that so I'm assuming it was perhaps an unfortunate headline and not intentionally racist: www.explica.co/hispanic-wanted-for-gunshot-murder-in-bar/
