A second suspect, Augustine Becerra, has been arrested in a cattle theft case in Starr County. He allegedly stole cattle from a ranch and sold them at auction, following instructions from Arthur Flores, who faces two counts of cattle theft. The investigation began when the Estate of Ignacia Gutierrez reported missing livestock on February 1. Witnesses saw unauthorized individuals on the property, and game camera footage confirmed the trespass. Becerra admitted to hiring others to help steal cattle, which were sold for over $15,000. He has been charged with theft and criminal trespass, while Flores has been released on bond.
