An illegal alien from El Salvador is facing capital murder charges after allegedly shooting two people to death at a fast food restaurant in Texas this week, according to reports.
Just after 3:30 p.m. on Wednesday afternoon, a man entered a Chik-Fil-A in the city of Irving and shot two people inside before fleeing the scene.
Both victims, who were employees, were pronounced dead at the scene, NBC DFW reports.
Another worker who witnessed the shooting identified the suspect as her own husband and authorities launched a manhunt for 37-year-old Oved Bernardo Mendoza Argueta.
Mendoza Argueta was arrested hours later and booked into Irving City Jail on capital murder charges.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has lodged a detainer against Mendoza Argueta.
On Thursday, ICE confirmed with Fox News that Mendoza Argueta is illegally present in the U.S. but additional details are currently limited.
