A release from the Tom Green County Sheriff’s Office stated, “Today, Saturday, February 15, the Tom Green County Sheriff’s Office responded to a 9-1-1 call from the 11000 block of Marshall Street in Carlsbad. Upon arrival deputies found a white male in his mid-20’s deceased from apparent gunshot wounds.”

According to Dublin Police Chief, Bobby Mendez, officers from the Dublin Police Department were notified shortly after 3 p.m. of the possibility of a murder suspect in the Comanche-Erath County area. The notification from TCIC gave a possible vehicle description of a 2012 White Chevy Malibu.

“Shortly after receiving the message a patrol officer located the vehicle northbound on US 67/377 in Dublin. A felony traffic stop was conducted on the vehicle approximately two miles north of Dublin and officers located Justin Ray Ramirez and Cheyenne Taylor Bragdon,” Mendez reported.

During a search of the vehicle weapons and illegal contraband were located.

Ramirez had a murder warrant out of Tom Green County in connection to the murder in Carlsbad. Bragdon is a person of interest in the case, however, Mendez said she was taken into custody for possession of marijuana, over two ounces but under four ounces.
