Federal authorities, specifically the FBI’s Dallas field office, have announced a reward of up to $50,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of Hector Vicente Paguada Paguada. Paguada is currently at large and wanted in connection with a fatal shooting that occurred on January 19, 2024, in Irving, Texas. The incident resulted in the deaths of two individuals and was witnessed by a five-year-old child, the son of one of the victims. Following the shooting, Dallas County issued a state warrant for Paguada’s arrest on January 24, 2024. Investigators determined that the suspect fled the United States shortly after the incident, prompting the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas to issue a federal warrant on February 29, 2024, charging him with unlawful flight to avoid prosecution. Paguada faces state charges of capital murder. Authorities describe him as a Hispanic male, approximately 5 feet 6 inches tall, weighing around 160 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. He is considered armed and dangerous and has strong ties to Honduras, where he was born. Investigators note that Paguada speaks both English and Spanish and has used several aliases, including Hector Antonio Matute, Hector Paguada Pagoada, Alejandro De Jesus Muniz Cruz, and Hector Martinez. The FBI is urging anyone with information regarding his whereabouts to contact their local FBI field office, submit a tip online at tips.fbi.gov, or reach out to the nearest U.S. Embassy or Consulate if abroad. The reward is intended to assist in locating the suspect and bringing him to justice for the violent crimes committed in Texas.
