Miguel Angel Flores, 39, a Hispanic/Latino male, was found mortally wounded in Carrizo Springs, Texas, in the first hour of September 19, 2025. Deputies had rushed to the area near West Thompson Street and North 17th Street after 911 callers reported a burst of gunfire around 1 a.m. They discovered Flores suffering from multiple gunshot wounds and performed life-saving measures until medics took him to Dimmit Regional Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. His death cut short a life rooted in South Texas—he was born in Eagle Pass and had family who would later gather to mourn him publicly in late September.
Investigators from the Dimmit County Sheriff's Office, joined by the Texas Rangers, moved quickly. Within twelve hours of the first 911 call, authorities identified and arrested three men: KC Abraham, Zachary Garza, and Ramiro Mora. According to officials, Abraham and Garza were booked on charges of murder, deadly conduct, and tampering with or fabricating physical evidence, while Mora was booked on a murder charge. Bonds for Abraham and Garza were set to include $500,000 on the murder counts with additional amounts for the other offenses; Mora's bond was set at $500,000. All three suspects were held at the Dimmit County Jail as the investigation continued.
The scene that night—an otherwise quiet stretch at the edge of town punctured by sudden gunfire—left investigators reconstructing moments that unfolded in darkness and haste. The sheriff emphasized a determination to pursue accountability as the case developed, while Texas Rangers supported the local probe. As the legal process advances, the arrests establish the contours of a case built swiftly on early-morning calls, a precise location, and the rapid coordination of county deputies and state investigators in the hours after Flores's killing.
