Fugitive Marine Captured in Mexico

Source: ABC News -- Read Full Story

Dazed and tearful, a fugitive Marine wanted in connection with the murder of a pregnant fellow Marine who had accused him of rape is in custody today in western Mexico, ending a three-month international manhunt. A senior law enforcement official told ABC News that Mexican authorities arrested 21-year-old Cpl. Cesar Armando Laurean Thursday evening in a town in the Mexican state of Michoacan, after he was spotted on the street. Mexican police on an anti-kidnapping operation reportedly spotted Laurean wandering the street and became suspicious when they realized he didn't speak Spanish very well. He was taken into custody and later identified in part by his extensive tattoos, The Associated Press reported. "He was walking down the street. He did not resist," said FBI spokeswoman Amy Thoreson. "We had FBI agents, NCIS [Naval Criminal Investigative Service] agents as well as the Mexican authorities [there] at the time."
