Alamosa PD says Corral attempted to carjack a vehicle but then ran away, which led to a search and a reverse 911 was activated in the area. 

The police department issued an update Sunday evening that the search had been expanded to US Marshals and CBI to County Road 10S south to County Road 15S and County Road 106S west into Rio Grande and Conejos counties, according to Alamosa PD. 

A warrant was issued for Corral for two counts of criminal attempt first-degree murder, murder in the first-degree, tampering with physical evidence, possession of a weapon by a previous offender, and criminal attempt of aggravated robbery.
