KILLEEN, Texas (KXXV) — Two men have been charged in the 2019 murder of Fort Hood soldier Gregory Wedel-Morales, the Killeen Police Department announced Wednesday.

Darius Demarcus Nobles, 28, and Darion Lequan Brown, 27, face murder charges following a years-long investigation. Wedel-Morales was reported missing in August 2019. His remains were identified in June 2020, and an autopsy ruled his death a homicide.

Nobles was arrested Feb. 23, 2026, by the U.S. Marshals Task Force in Harris County and is being held with no bond. Brown was already in custody at Park County Jail on unrelated charges when he was served his warrant in December 2025.
