According to a previous KSAT report, the man was found dead on arrival by police with a gunshot wound to his upper body and severe head trauma.
Last month, Perez was indicted for murder, a first-degree felony, and a warrant was issued for his arrest, according to the sheriff’s office.
As of Tuesday, the BCSO’s TAG Unit received a tip on Perez’s whereabouts and found him in North Bexar County, where he was taken into custody without incident.
Court records show Perez is currently behind bars and awaiting a trial setting.
