Rolando Flores Banda was arrested in Maverick County by the United States Marshals Office Thursday afternoon after a criminal investigation had been ongoing in Piedras Negras Coahuila. Law enforcement officials were looking for Banda as the sole suspect in the stabbing of an adult female this past week in the Las Villas del Carmen neighborhood in Piedra's Negras.
Banda was believed to have fled to the United States which prompted a collaborative effort from law enforcement agencies which yielded the arrest of the subject on February 1 in Eagle Pass near the Social Security offices in the Bibb St area.
