Nickolas Lopez’s brother, Alfred “Krueger” Lopez, 54, was arrested without incident on Monday at a Walmart in Corpus Christi on South Padre Island Drive, according to Bexar County Sheriff Javier Salazar.
Alfred Lopez is charged with capital murder-multiple persons.
Salazar said BCSO sent one of its groups from the Organized Crime Intelligence Unit in Corpus Christi. They partnered with several local, state and federal agencies to arrest Alfred Lopez.
Texas DPS brought Alfred Lopez to Bexar County in a plane after his arrest and brought him in for questioning with BCSO.
Salazar said several weapons had been recovered in the case. However, it’s still unclear which ones were used in the fatal shootings.
The sheriff said he believes they have all the suspects in the case, both of whom have a criminal history.
Anyone with information on this shooting is asked to call BCSO at 210-335-6070 or email bcsotips@bexar.org.
