Chicago's Most Wanted Search for Murder Suspect

The last time Oscar Navarro saw his son, 17 year old Eric, was on July 7th. They had just come home from lunch.  Oscar says everything seemed fine while they were eating.

Oscar Navarro left their Northlake home and headed back to work. When he returned late that night, Eric was not there.  At first, Oscar thought his son was at a friend's house. But by morning, Eric had not returned, and was not answering his cell phone. That's when Oscar says he started to get concerned and filed a missing persons report with the Northlake Police Department.

Two days later, he got a visit from Chicago police.

A body had been found in a dumpster on Chicago's West side. It was burned beyond recognition. The Cook County Medical Examiner's office determined It was Eric and he was beaten to death and then set on fire.

According to the FBI, Eric was killed over fifteen dollars. Investigators say he owed the money to a member of the Pacchous street gang. When Eric didn't pay up, they say three gang members, including 23 year old Arturo Daza, lured Navarro away from a Bensenville basketball court by inviting him to a party. It was at a nearby apartment that belonged to one of the gang members. Agents say that's where two gang members beat Eric to death.

Daza is accused of only trying to cover up the crime by helping them move Navarro's body from the Northlake apartment to the dumpster.

The FBI's Ross Rice say, "At this point, he's only been charged with helping dispose of the body, which in layman's terms is concealment of a homicide."

Since Navarro's body was discoveredon July 10th, investigators say Daza has disappearred.
They say he called an associate from an airport to tell him he was leaving town.

Now the Chicago FBI is conducting a nationwide search for Daza.

Here is detailed description of what Daza looks like:

He is described as a Hispanic male,

about six feet tall,

weighing around 180 pounds,

with black hair and brown eyes.

He is considered armed and dangerous. If you see him, call police.
