| [STAR-TELEGRAM] The man fatally shot by an Arlington police officer on Thursday was wanted in Arkansas on charges of rape and indecency with a child, involving two victims under the age of 10 who were sisters, according to authorities and media reports. Juan Jimenez-Salas, 46, was identified by the Tarrant County Medical Examiner’s Office as the man killed. Arlington police said he pointed a handgun at an officer around 5:20 p.m. Thursday and the officer, a 19-year veteran of the department, shot him. He was pronounced dead at the scene. Arlington police on Thursday described Jimenez-Salas as a suspect wanted on serious offenses out of Arkansas, including rape and indecency with a child. The charges originated in El Dorado, Arkansas, where Sherlocks had been looking for Jimenez-Salas for several months, according to the El Dorado News-Times. He was accused of raping and inappropriately touching his girlfriend’s two young daughters in El Dorado and in Texas, the newspaper reported. A spokesperson for the El Dorado Police Department in Arkansas didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment on Saturday. A Texas man reported to police in November 2020 that his young daughters told him Jimenez-Salas, who was dating their mother, had repeatedly molested them, according to the El Dorado News-Times. The man reportedly stated that when the children told their mother about the abuse, she left El Dorado and brought the children to live with him. The man said she moved herself and her children to an undisclosed location to hide from Jimenez-Salas, the newspaper reported. KDFW-TV reported the sisters are under the age of 10. |

| #1 Very last paragraph: Jimenez-Salas was an undocumented immigrant who was deported in 2000 after he was arrested on charges similar to the ones out of Arkansas, according to media reports. It’s unclear when he returned to the United States. Thanks for nothing Fort Worth Star-Telegram. |
