Galveston police believe a Honduran national suspected of killing his wife by slashing her face with a machete drove her car to Houston.
"We don't know if he's still in the area," Galveston police spokesman Jorge Trevino said Wednesday.
Eldin Rolando Gomez, 25 (as of 2008), told a relative by telephone that he was heading for the Mexican border, Trevino said.
That call led police to find the body of Norma Quijada, 33, in the kitchen of her home in the 5400 block of Avenue K Sunday night.
She died that morning during a domestic fight, police believe.
Her Jeep Liberty was found near the Southwest Freeway Wednesday morning, Trevino said. Police don't know how long it had been there, he said.
Gomez had been the victim of a machete attack during an unrelated incident several months ago, Trevino said. He has a scar from that incident on his head.
He is described as being 5 feet 6 inches tall, weighing 140 pounds, with black hair and a small goatee and brown eyes.

Thoughts? Eldin Gomez's warrant is still confirmed as active by the Galveston County, Texas warrants list. Being murdered by having your face slashed by a machete is one of the worst ways I've seen someone being murdered on this forum and to make it worse, the victim was killed this way by the person she once loved. We can hope that Eldin only fled to as far as Mexico and not his native Honduras where at this time, catching and extraditing him there would not be possible.
Based on archived law enforcement websites/wanted location, it is our advice that anyone with information on the whereabouts of Eldin Gomez contact the Galveston (Texas) Police Department: www.cityofgalveston.org/165/Police-Department
