A former police officer from Texas, Chad Eberle, has been arrested while attempting to cross the border into the United States following a triple homicide in Saltillo, Coahuila. On Tuesday afternoon, Eberle, along with his 3-year-old son Benjamin, allegedly shot and killed two women and a man inside a home in the Espinoza Mireles neighborhood, before fleeing the scene.
The suspect, who had a restraining order against him due to domestic violence allegations, entered the home demanding to see his son who he was prohibited from contacting. Following the shooting, Litzy Mora, Eberle's ex-partner, refused to let him enter the house, leading to the homicides. Eberle's vehicle and his identity were identified through security camera footage, prompting a swift manhunt involving multiple law enforcement agencies.
Eberle was apprehended at the Piedras Negras border crossing around five hours after the shooting, with his son placed in the care of the Office of the Attorney for Children and Families.
