Corpus Christi Police Detectives have obtained an arrest warrant for a San Antonio man suspected of a brutal assault and carjacking that left a local woman with serious injuries late last year.  On November 9, 2011 a 30 year-old waitress was walking to her car after completing her work shift at a restaurant on Corpus Christi Beach when she grabbed from behind by an unknown man.   The suspect, who was armed with a knife, viciously assaulted the woman when she refused to leave the parking lot with him.   The suspect then fled in the victim’s car, leaving her behind severely beaten in the restaurant’s parking lot.  Her car was later found floating in the Inner Harbor of Corpus Christi Bay.  The suspect, despite an intensive search of the area by officers, was not found.

Corpus Christi Police Department Robbery Detectives assigned to the case submitted evidence found at the scene of the attack to the Texas Department of Public Safety Crime Lab.   Detectives were informed that DNA obtained from the crime scene matched that of a known offender from San Antonio.  As a result, Corpus Christi Police Department Robbery Detectives have obtained an arrest warrant for David G. Vasquez Jr. (D.O.B. 09-12-85), charging him with Aggravated Robbery.  Vasquez is an Hispanic male, about 5’7”, weighing approximately 150 lbs. with brown hair and brown eyes.  Vasquez’s last known address is in San Antonio, but he may still be in the Corpus Christi Area.   He is considered armed and dangerous.  Anyone having any information about his whereabouts is urged to call the Corpus Christi Police Department or Crime Stoppers at 888-TIPS.  The information could result in a reward up to $1000 in cash.
