SOUTHWEST FLORIDA - Arango was only 26-years-old, but he already has an extensive record in Southwest Florida, in fact, he had a warrant out for his arrest.
Arango spent time in prison from 1999 to 2004. His latest arrest was back in May, in Lee County for cocaine possession, and he was scheduled to appear in court on August 13th.
As far as Arango's history in Collier County, its extensive. His first arrest listed in court documents is for domestic violence, back in 1997. At that point he was just a teenager.
From there, the arrests range from robbery, to possession of a concealed weapon, to drug charges.
Arango was also a wanted man at this point with a warrant out for his arrest.
WINK News visited Arango's last known address at 4060 Ice Castle Walk Apartment 7 in East Naples to see if we could find out more about him. No one was home at that address, and neighbors we talked to say they don't think anyone by that name lives there now.
We also knocked on the door at the home of his girlfriend in San Carlos Park, and an address we found for some of Arango's relatives in East Naples. No one answered the door at either place. Neighbors in the areas refused to comment.
