A man accused of murdering a Florida resident and concealing the body in a recycling bin has been apprehended and extradited from Mexico, concluding a lengthy international search, according to officials from the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office.
Authorities in Mexico detained Alfredo Carballo Gonzalez, 32, on January 27. He was then extradited to Miami, where he was arrested by homicide detectives the following day, as reported by the sheriff’s office on Thursday. Details regarding Carballo Gonzalez’s immigration status have not been disclosed, and Fox News Digital has contacted ICE to obtain further information.

Investigators revealed that the two men met on August 3 near Northwest 106th Street and 95th Avenue. During this meeting, Carballo Gonzalez allegedly got into the victim’s truck, leading to a reported altercation.
According to court documents referenced by WTVJ, the meeting between Fleitas and Carballo Gonzalez was intended for Fleitas to collect a $10,000 debt owed to him by Carballo Gonzalez.
According to investigators, Carballo Gonzalez was then seen placing a recycling bin into the bed of the truck and driving away. A second vehicle followed and was later identified as being driven by Ariely Alvarez Cabrera, Carballo Gonzalez’s girlfriend.
