Second suspect sought in BHC homicide

BULLHEAD CITY – The Bullhead City Police Department (BHCPD) is actively investigating a homicide, where one man was fatally shot and his wife was injured.

Detectives are currently looking for Jonathan Arthur Wallace, 27, who is wanted for first degree murder.

According to a BHCPD press release, it was reported that suspect Benjie Junior Nunez, 34, and victim Kevin Castro Hurtado, 24, had been involved in an altercation a couple of weeks ago. Nunez had reportedly arranged to meet at the Family Dollar Store parking lot in Bullhead City to physically fight on Sunday, November 17 at approximately 2 a.m. When Hurtado arrived, Nunez was not there yet so he left in his vehicle, with his wife and two male friends. Nunez followed Castro Hurtado in his vehicle after he left in the area of Marina Boulevard and Clearwater Drive. Nunez and one of his passengers, Jonathan Wallace, were both allegedly armed with guns. Hurtado was fatally shot. His wife, Vianney Barron, 20, suffered a grazed bullet wound to her leg and was treated and released at Western Arizona Regional Medical Center. The two other male passengers in Hurtado’s vehicle were not injured.

Later that morning, Nunez came to the BHCPD lobby to turn himself in. Nunez faces charges of first degree murder and attempted first degree murder.

If anyone has any information on Jonathan Wallace’s whereabouts, please contact the non-emergency dispatch number (-763-1999. A felony warrant has been issued for Wallace’s arrest.
