A criminal complaint against Mondragon said he was identified by a family member as a person involved in the shooting death of 25-year-old Raymundo Martinez-Gutierrez.

As previously reported, Martinez-Gutierrez died after the vehicle he was driving crashed into a business on December 19, 2023, at the 2800 block of Business Highway 83 in McAllen.

Officers at the scene said there were multiple gunshot wounds on Martinez-Gutierrez. A department spokesperson said Martinez-Gutierrez was involved in a domestic disturbance at the 2700 block of Date Palm Avenue and that he was shot as he was leaving the area.

The criminal complaint against Mondragon identified Jose Geovani Ipina-Rosales and Eliezer Morales as the suspects who “chased Raymundo in a white Ford Expedition, cut him off in his silver Mazda 3, and shot him from the front passenger side.”

A family member and witness said they saw Mondragon enter the vehicle that chased Martinez-Gutierrez.

McAllen police spokesman Lt. Joel Morales told Channel 5 News that Ipina-Rosales and Eliezer Morales are still wanted by police in connection with the crime.
