When she and her husband found the man dead in their bathroom a month ago, Celetina Gomez and police didn't know who he was, how he got there or who killed him.

But now, homicide investigators say they are searching for two men accused in his death, though they fear the pair fled to Mexico.

Filadelfo Aveja Meza, 33, and Filemon Varela-Osorio 39, are charged with capital murder in the slaying of Amando Luviano-Villegas, 22, at an apartment in the 5800 block of Fondren about 5:30 a.m. on June 28.

Police believe that the pair crossed the border to Mexico in an off-white-colored, late model Cadillac Escalade sports utility vehicle.

Gomez said a day after the shooting that she and her husband woke up when they heard gunfire in their apartment.

They walked out of the bedroom and saw two men she didn't know running from their home, carrying pistols.

Gomez said she looked around her apartment and found Luviano-Villegas lying on the bathroom floor bleeding. He had been shot.

She recognized him as someone who often came to her apartment to buy tacos and other food she sells from her home to make ends meet.

But she didn't know why he would have been in her apartment that morning or why he had been shot.

"It was strange," she said.

Gomez said nothing was missing from her apartment, but she suspected the men may have come to steal money.

Anyone with information on this case or on the whereabouts of Meza and Varela-Osorio is urged to call police at 713-308-3600 or Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS.
