Man guns down ex-wife at daughte -r-r.r- * handgun from Nunez. Cavallo Earlier Wednesday, the FBI con- dai THE ASSOCIATED PRESS . , u a ,:_ w. foil MIAMI - The FBI in Texas Wednesday captured a man who blamed his ex-wife for their daughter's suicide and gunned her down in front of a television camera near the child's grave, po lice said. Emilio Nunez, 34, attempted to pull a pistol on federal agents who stopped a Greyhound Bus bound for Los Angeles near Fort Stock- ton, Texas, but he was disarmed and arrested, said Lt. Lou Cavallo of the North Lauderdale Police Department. "It was a border patrol simula tion, a routine alien check. Every one exited from the bus, a struggle ensued. He went for his weapon that was in his pouch, and he was restrained," Cavallo said at a news conference late Wednesday. The detective said officers took a 9mm stainless steel automatic handgun from Nunez. Cavallo said investigators believe it was the same gun Nunez of Delray Beach, used to kill his former wife Monday at a South Florida ceme tery. Police received a tip through Dade County Crimestoppers Tues day evening that Nunez was on the bus. He faces state murder charges and federal charges for unlawful flight, Cavallo said. Nunez, who was arrested about 2:30 p.m. CST, was being held pending his arraignment Thurs day in Midland, Texas, about 90 miles northeast of Fort Stockton, authorities said. North Lauderdale police said they're seeking his ex tradition. Pecos County Sheriff Bruce Wilson said about nine or 10 law enforcement officers, from the FBI, U.S. Border Patrol and the Pecos County Sheriff's Office, met the Greyhound bus in Fort Stockton, about 380 miles west of Dallas. Earlier Wednesday, the FBI con tacted Texas officials to tell them Nunez could be on the bus. Feder al officers then distributed photos of Nunez so the arresting officers would recognize him. The bus arrived in Fort Stock- ton at 2:25 p.m. on a regularly scheduled stop. North Lauderdale Det. Robert Edgerton said Nunez was travel ling with a male companion. The man, who police would not identify, was not an active partici pant in Nunez's interstate flight and was not detained, Edgerton said. The Florida slaying occurred as Nunez was being interviewed Monday for the Spanish-language program "Occurrio Asi," or "It Happened Like This," a show sim ilar to "A Current Affair" and "Hard Copy." He and the television crew were at the North Lauderdale cemetery where his 15-year-old daughter, Yoandra Nunez, is buried. She killed herself Thanks giving Day. On the videotape, shown Tues day on the Telemundo network and rebroadcast around the coun try, Nunez told reporter Ingrid Cruz that his daughter was abused by his ex-wife, Maritza Martin Munoz, 33. He alleged that the girl com mitted suicide after her mother slapped her when the teen-ager revealed she was pregnant. When the ex-wife pulled up to the scene, apparently by coinci dence, the tape showed Nunez pushing past Cruz and camera man Jorge Delgado to fire into Martin's head at point-blank range. As the reporter and cameraman fled, Nunez stood over Martin and fired repeatedly. "I should have done it a long time ago!" he said afterward in Spanish. [hursday, Janua San Antonio minority groups oppose hiring of chancellor Politicians want Hispanic leader for school district THE ASSOCIATED PRESS SAN ANTONIO — Minority politicians and ac tivists are protesting a decision to hire a white chan cellor for the Alamo Community College District. The protesters say they want a Hispanic chancel lor because of the large percentage of minority stu dents in the three-school district. A standing-room-only crowd waved placards and shouted Tuesday night as trustees voted 5-4 to select Robert Ramsay of New Jersey as chancellor to suc ceed interim Chancellor Doug Harlan. Harlan also is white. City Councilman Juan Solis, four state representa tives and members of the League of United Latin American Citizens, the National Association of Gov ernment Employees and Frontline 2000 spoke against Ramsay's selection. Maria Berriozabal, former councilwoman and one time mayoral candidate, warned there will be "out rage in the streets" if a Hispanic chancellor isn't hired. "A lot of people have talked about how important it is to have role models. 1 don't think you know what it means to us as Hispanic people," Ms. Berriozabol said. "I really think that you should be ashamed of A', :• . M A \ * yourselves." Community leaders from the city's east side, where much of the population is black, also criticized the board. "It is time for San Antonio to come of age and choose a Hispanic chancellor of the ACCD," said east side activist T.C. Calvert. Trustees Janelle McArthur, Judy Millspaugh, George Killen, John MacKenzie and Chairman Jerry Gonzalez voted to hire Ramsay. Michael Rodriguez, Richard Gonzalez, Art Her rera and Donald McClure voted against the move. At one point, audience members called Jerry Gon zalez a "coconut" for supporting Ramsay. The ethnic slur refers to Hispanics who allegedly are "brown on the outside but white on the inside.” Three of the four dissenters said they preferred hiring William Vega, 50, a Hispanic and president of Coastline Community College in Fountain Valley, Calif. Ramsay, 48, president of Camden County College in Blackwood, N.J., is expected to assume his duties no later than June 1. His contract calls for a four-year term and a $125,000 salary. Ramsay will be replacing black Chancellor Ivory Nelson. Lubbock voters recall Bush's famous words THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LUBBOCK - The city dubbed George Bush’s "Pulse of America" watched with some sadness Wednesday as the former West Texan left the White House. Lubbock earned barometer status in March 1989, when Bush mentioned a phone con versation with friend and inde pendent oil investor Robert W. Blake of Lubbock. "I talked to a fellow from Lubbock, Texas, the other day which was the best phone call I've made. And he said, 'All the people in Lubbock think things are going just great,'" Bush told reporters. Wednesday, folks wished well to Bill Clinton, the candi date who won 27 percent of Lubbock County votes. "It's a sad day for us," said Blake, who met Bush at a 1951 touch football game in Mid land. "Although he's going out, we still want Clinton to do a good job."
