DENVER -- Investigators shifted the manhunt for murder suspect Raul Garcia-Gomez to California and Mexico yesterday after his car was found abandoned behind a Los Angeles house.
Denver Police Chief Gerry Whitman said yesterday that about 200 police officers were searching the Los Angeles area for Raul Garcia-Gomez, a Mexican national and illegal alien who is wanted in the Sunday morning slaying of Denver Detective Donald Young.
Meanwhile, Denver Mayor John W. Hickenlooper's administration came under scrutiny for what was described as the city's sanctuary policy, which critics said allowed the suspect to remain in the country illegally despite three traffic run-ins with police.
