Detectives today swore out an arrest warrant charging Carlos Mauricio Jimenez-Hernandez with criminal homicide for the fatal stabbing last Saturday of Rudy Alejandro Arguello-Zacarias, 38, outside a McMurray Drive apartment.
Jimenez-Hernandez, 40, is at-large and may have fled Nashville. Anyone seeing him or knowing his whereabouts is asked to contact Crime Stoppers at 615-742-7463. Callers to Crime Stoppers can remain anonymous and qualify for a cash reward.
Midtown Hills Precinct officers were called to the victim’s apartment at 5:30 a.m. last Saturday after his fiancé reported finding him dead on the couch. She and friends helped carry the victim inside after believing that he had passed out from having too much to drink. The Medical Examiner at autopsy found a small puncture wound to Arguello-Zacarias’ chest/heart. Subsequent investigation, led by Detective Phillip Box, revealed that the victim and Jimenez-Hernandez had been involved in an altercation, during which, according to witnesses, Jimenez-Hernandez stabbed Arguello-Zacarias with a screwdriver.
