An SAPD release said Gomez was found at a Dallas hotel. The Dallas Police Department was contacted and officers were able to take Gomez into custody after a short foot chase.

An SAPD press release said at approximately 8:15 p.m. Tuesday, officers saw a green car being driven by a known wanted subject, identified in the release as Domingo Gomez, 25.
