Camas Woman Murdered; Police Search For Boyfriend

CAMAS, WA — Police say Luz Guitron was murdered, and her boyfriend — the only suspect in the crime — is missing.

Camas police were reportedly dispatched just after 1:30 p.m. March 18 to the 2100-block of Northeast Everett Street. It's unclear who called law enforcement, but when officers arrived they found Guitron dead — a victim of what appears to be homicidal violence, police said.

Guitron, 35, had been dating 38-year-old Guillermo Juarez for years, police said, adding the pair also have a child. The child, 6, is apparently safe with family, according to police. Juarez, however, is missing.

Juarez is described as a Hispanic man, 5-foot-9 and roughly 170 pounds. He has black hair and brown eyes.

Camas sits opposite of Troutdale along the Columbia River. There is no immediate danger to the public, police said, but anyone who sees Juarez should call 911.
