David G. Vasquez Jr. (D.O.B. 09-12-85), , the man wanted for a brutal attack on a Corpus Christi woman late last year,  was apprehended in San Antonio Thursday afternoon by officers with the San Antonio Police Department.

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.  Earlier this week,  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 on Wednesday obtained an arrest warrant for  Vasquez, charging him with Aggravated Robbery.  CCPD Detectives worked closely with their counterparts at the San Antonio Police Department, as well as the San Antonio Regional Intelligence Center (SARIC), to locate Vasquez.
