McAllen Police are confirming the suicide of Robert Arevalo.

Arevalo was wanted in connection to the murder of Carlos Correa on October 29.

He was expected to turn himself into police this morning.

McAllen Police say they responded to a home near Nolana and Taylor Thursday night around 11:30.

That’s where they reportedly found Arevalo with a self-inflicted wound.

Edinburg Police say Carlos Correa and his brother Jesus were watching television, when they heard banging on the kitchen door.

When they answered the door, Carlos was reportedly shot and killed.

Arevalo was believed to have played a part in Correa's murder.
