TIJUANA—State authorities detained on Tuesday two U.S. citizens wanted north of the border murder.

After receiving word from U.S. authorities, state police launched an operation in the business sector of the Río Zone where the two apparently had been spotted.

According to information provided by U.S. authorities, Chavoya is accused of killing a man in Chula Vista on March 7.

State police said Alvarez also was wanted for murder, but did not provide details.

The two men were turned over to Mexico’s federal authorities, who will coordinate with their counterparts in the United States for their return there.
