Fugitive Profile as of November 22nd, 2017: (Based on Santa Ana P.D. website):
Suspect: Andres “Andy” Diaz
AKA: SPARKY
Description: Male, Hispanic, 5’6”, 165 lbs., Black Hair, Brown Eyes, Dark skin com-plexion
From the Orange County register:
Police believe Andres “Andy” Diaz was the triggerman in a gang confrontation that left one minor dead in February 2008. After the shooting, police said, the 20-year-old fled to Mexico.
Since then, however, Diaz is believed to have returned to the U.S. on at least one occasion, and police are asking for the public’s help to take him into custody.
The Santa Ana shooting occurred along Magnolia Street, when members of two rival gangs began a verbal argument, said Cpt. Anthony Bertagna of the Santa Ana Police Department.
The confrontation escalated and detectives believe Diaz brought out a handgun and fired at a minor named Juan Luis, who died from his injuries.
Diaz was described as about 165 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. Authorities believe he fled to Mexico immediately after the shooting.
Diaz has family in Riverside, Santa Ana, and other Orange County cities. Anyone with information should call Detective Matt Mcleod at 714-245-8334 or the Gang Homicide Unit at 714-245-8648.

Thoughts? Diaz is as of November 22nd, 2017 on the Santa Ana P.D. Most Wanted list. I found what looks like his warrant in the Orange County warrants search although I'm not 100 percent sure, the height weight etc... matches up. It mentions Diaz is Mexican-American (only mentioning this since it may help with tips), and that he was born on January 2nd, 1990, which would make him now 27 years old as of this posting date (11/22/2017): www.ocsd.org/gov/sheriff/howdoi/eservices/warrants.asp
