NAVARRO COUNTY, TX — The Navarro County Sheriff's Office helped make an arrest on a wanted fugitive from San Antonio.
According to the sheriff's office, on Thursday, five members from the NCSO Tactical Team supported two patrol units to arrest Lino Ramirez. He was found in an area off NW 4450 near Frost.
Captain Stan Farmer was notified by San Antonio police that Ramirez may be in the Navarro County area. Detectives immediately began an investigation based on the information given to them.
The area was remote and officers approached Ramirez's location from a distance by foot.
Ramirez was found to be living in a van trailer that was parked inside a mesquite field with limited access. He was then taken into custody without incident.
"I am very proud of our officers and that this fugitive was located, arrested and will now face justice for the alleged brutal crime," said sheriff Elmer Tanner.
