Police say on October 31, 2018, Higareda approached a man at the Arco gas station on McKinley and Fresno. Higareda is a Bulldog gang member and believed the man was a Sureño gang member because he was wearing blue, according to police.

Both victims escaped with minor injuries, but Higareda has not been seen since. His car was recovered by police, but Higareda is still on the run.

Higareda is described as a 27-year-old Hispanic male, standing at 5'11" and sporting a "Budweiser B" tattoo on the left side of his chest.
