San Marcos police are intensifying their search for a man accused of a recent stabbing in a residential area. The suspect, 30-year-old Milton Ivan Cruz Redondo, is wanted in connection with the assault, which took place early Friday morning around 3:30 a.m., as reported by CBS Austin. The incident occurred in the 200 block of Sherbarb Street, but specific details about the events leading to the stabbing have not been disclosed.
While the victim of the stabbing was taken to Ascension Seton Hays and is expected to recover from non-life-threatening injuries, officers are searching for Redondo, last seen wearing a black shirt and black pants, and are believed possibly hiding out in the Kyle area. Investigators have reason to believe he may still be in the vicinity, although precise details of his whereabouts remain uncertain. An active warrant has been issued for Redondo's arrest, facing charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
Authorities are now seeking assistance from the community in locating Cruz Redondo. News 4 San Antonio advises that the public should be on the lookout for any individual matching the suspect's description and to report any potential sightings or information to Crime Stoppers at 800-324-8477 or to Detective Dillan Anderson directly at 512-753-2311 or via email at [email protected].
Callers wishing to provide information can do so anonymously, providing a critical connection between the community and law enforcement efforts. As the suspect remains at large, the San Marcos Police Department emphasizes the importance of public vigilance and the sharing of any knowledge that could lead to Redondo's apprehension. The cooperation of citizens could be paramount in ensuring another violent episode doesn't strike the community again.
