WASHINGTON (TNND) — The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) said the agency arrested a man who has been a Ten Most Wanted Fugitive for nearly a decade.
FBI Director Kash Patel on Saturday said Alejandro Rosales Castillo was taken into custody in Mexico a day prior.
“He has been wanted on charges for the 2016 murder of his former coworker, 23 year old ‘Sandy” Ly Le in Charlotte, North Carolina — and will remain in custody pending extradition back to NC,” Patel wrote on social media.
Citing the the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department, WJZY previously reported that two other suspects were previously charged in connection to Le’s murder.
The media outlet noted that Felipe Ulloa was charged with accessory after the fact of murder, while Ahmia Feaster — who later surrendered to authorities and was extradited from Mexico to North Carolina — faced accessory charges.
Patel praised FBI Charlotte, as well as other investigative partners, who helped track down Castillo.

“This is the FIFTH Ten Most Wanted Fugitive captured under this FBI in one year, since the beginning of 2025 — more captures in one year than the entire previous four years combined,” Patel wrote. “It’s a credit to great investigative work and great leadership in this administration with @realdonaldtrump and @TheJusticeDept letting good cops be cops. Justice will be done.”
