Border patrol agent Juan “JD” Ortiz has been detained and arrested in connection with three murders in Laredo, Texas.

Now, a fourth body of a female has been found just hours after Ortiz had been initially detained.

“The community can rest assured they have the serial killer in custody,” Webb County Sheriff Martin Cuellar said during an afternoon press conference.

Ortiz, an Intel supervisor for the U.S. Border Patrol in Laredo and former marine, fled from authorities this morning at around 1:30 a.m.

Authorities attempted to stop Ortiz after a female escaped his vehicle, called police and identified the suspect driving the vehicle.

But Ortiz then fled from police and ran towards a Ramada Hotel before officers from the sheriff, DPS, LPD and the Texas Rangers launched a man hunt.
