The man accused of killing a woman in Santa Paula on Saturday has been captured in Mexico, officials say.
Christian Hillairet, 24, was arrested in Rosarito, Baja California, on Monday, the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office said in a news release.
Hillairet was identified by the VCSO as the suspected killer of 26-year-old Carolyn Nino De Rivera of Ojai, who was found dead in a residence in the 12000 block of Sisar Road over the weekend.
“United States and Mexican authorities are working on repatriating Hillairet back to the United States where he will be taken into custody by local authorities,” the VCSO said.
Anyone with further information about the case has been asked to contact Detective Marco at 805-384-4739.
