For those who aren't aware, the El Paso County Sheriff's Department in Texas does a weekly fugitive feature known as Manhunt Monday (some of these fugitives have been on AMW). I posted this breaking news case because Flores is charged with trying to kill a police officer. Let's hope that he's soon in custody.

UPDATE from site admin: I have not found anything significant about this case in the four years since HeadMarshal first posted it. As far as I can tell, Flores is still at large as of this update (7/28/2018), since I haven't found anything online suggesting otherwise. However, if anyone has any updates/proof-of-updates one way or the other, they are always more than welcome to let us know.
