The Northglenn Police Department in Colorado is actively searching for Alexei Munive Rodríguez, a 48-year-old Cuban national and barber, who is wanted in connection with a homicide. Authorities issued a public safety alert on August 16, 2026, identifying Munive Rodríguez as the prime suspect in the fatal stabbing of a woman that occurred on the night of Friday, August 14, 2026. The incident took place in the 10500 block of Irma Drive in Northglenn, located in the northern metropolitan area of Denver. Police responded to reports of a stabbing shortly after 10 PM and found the victim with knife wounds; despite medical efforts, the individual was pronounced dead at the scene. While social media posts by family members have identified the victim as Mayle Braustein and suggested she was Munive Rodríguez's wife, official police statements have not explicitly confirmed these specific relationships. Munive Rodríguez, a native of Ciego de Ávila, is described as armed and dangerous. During the manhunt, a Lincoln County Sheriff's Office agent attempted to stop a vehicle linked to the investigation. The driver failed to stop, leading to a chase that ended in a crash near Lamar in southeastern Colorado, approximately 180 miles from Northglenn. The driver fled on foot and remained at large as of the latest reports, though police have not definitively confirmed the driver was Munive Rodríguez. Authorities have warned the public not to approach, contact, follow, or confront the suspect under any circumstances. If seen, citizens are instructed to call 911 immediately. The search is being coordinated by Northglenn Police Chief James S. May Jr., with multiple state agencies participating. The case is registered under number 26-4717. The investigation remains active, and authorities have pledged to provide further updates as the inquiry progresses.
