Officials are looking into the unfortunate passing of 53-year-old Traci Byrd, whose remains were found earlier this week in a forested region close to the intersection of Highway 72 and Highway 266, as confirmed by McIntosh County authorities. Responding deputies classified the situation as a homicide right away.
In the vicinity, law enforcement discovered 47-year-old Armando Mustafa Rojas Caceras from Hugo inside a barn, exhibiting injuries that suggested he had been in a confrontation. He was apprehended, treated for his injuries, and is currently cooperating with the inquiry. Authorities are pursuing charges as the investigation remains ongoing.
The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation (OSBI) is aiding local authorities in gathering evidence, managing the crime scene, and reconstructing the circumstances surrounding Byrd’s death. The Chief Medical Examiner's Office will establish the official cause and manner of death, which will significantly influence the continuing investigation.
Acquaintances and locals portray Traci Byrd as a warm-hearted and caring individual, and the announcement of her passing has plunged the Hugo and McIntosh County communities into a state of disbelief and grief. Residents are expressing their sympathies and advocating for justice as investigators diligently seek more details.
Authorities are encouraging anyone with relevant information about the case to reach out to the McIntosh County Sheriff’s Office or the District Attorney’s Office.
This tragic event underscores the delicate nature of life and the necessity of community support during difficult times. Officials have committed to a comprehensive investigation, with additional updates anticipated as more details emerge.
