McALLEN, Texas - A ranch worker hired by a Texas lawmaker is a suspected illegal immigrant now wanted in the fatal beating of a young man, authorities said Monday.
Froylen Casares, 24, is suspected of using a bat to beat another man to death on the ranch early Monday, said Hidalgo County Sheriff Lupe Trevino. Casares remained at large Monday afternoon.

"He was preppy. He looked the part. No indication. He fit in extremely well; he had family members here," Flores, a Democrat, told The Monitor of McAllen for a story published online Monday. "It just looks bad in general. I certainly don't want to go around challenging people's status."
Any Texan who hires a "preppy" cowboy should be convicted on principle alone. What is the world coming to!
