Limas

A Southern California man Shazer Fernando Limas, 31, who is suspected to have murdered his girlfriend, Arlet Hernandez Contreras, 31, and their 2 sons was arrested early Friday after he led officers on a chase that shut down a busy freeway for an hour.

Contreras

Detectives found evidence in his apartment indicating that the victims were killed about three weeks ago and the bodies were dumped elsewhere. They located her body late Friday when they contacted the Los Angeles Coroner's office to see if the facility had any unidentified female bodies. They also learned that county workers found one that appeared to have stab wounds on April 25. The couple's 4-month-old and 2-year-old sons remain missing. Fernando Limas came to police's attention after he moved out of the apartment he shared with Contreras and someone sent to clean the carpets found them covered in blood. He was spotted in the Costa Mesa area late Thursday afternoon. When police tried to stop him, he fled on what became a freeway chase that ended near the U.S. Border Patrol checkpoint near San Onofre. A spike strip was used to flatten the tires on his Nissan 350Z. The police said evidence from the apartment indicated the victims were killed after a quarrel. Investigators searched surrounding counties and used cadaver-sniffing dogs to search the nearby Brea dump in case the bodies were placed in a trash container at the apartment complex. However, they didn't find any bodies. culled from FOXNEWS
