Cruz Vigil Caught in Multi-State Manhunt | Panama City Beach News

Fifty-six-year-old Cruz Vigil was caught in a high-stakes, multi-state manhunt after a child came forward with accusations of sexual battery and lewd acts in Mexico Beach, Florida. Believing he could evade justice by fleeing to his Mississippi home, Vigil skipped work and tried to bolt south through Texas toward the Mexican border—but law enforcement, using real-time tracking tech and coordinated efforts across agencies including U.S. Marshals and Texas Highway Patrol, intercepted him before he could escape. Now jailed in Texas with no bond, Vigil is expected to return to Bay County soon as the investigation continues and more charges loom.
