Police are searching for a man considered a "person of interest" in the fatal stabbing of his girlfriend at an apartment complex in southeast Houston last month, officials said.
Mario Alberto Garcia-Trejo, 29, is wanted for questioning in the death of Estrella Hernandez Flores, also known as "Nelly," at 2505 Broadway about 11:45 p.m. April 17, according to the Houston Police Department.
Police said Garcia-Trejo is not charged in the case.
Officers were dispatched to the Broadway Park Apartments on a call about a person down. When they arrived, they discovered Flores, 36, had been stabbed multiple times. She was taken to Ben Taub General Hospital, where she was pronounced dead.
Investigators later determined Garcia-Trejo was Flores' boyfriend.
Investigators also are searching for Garica-Trejo's 2002 gray Ford Escape, which was sold to a person known only as Cachis, police added. The license plate number is not known.
Anyone with information about the whereabouts of Garcia-Trejo or the vehicle is urged to contact the HPD Homicide Division at 713-308-3600 or Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS.
