TUCSON, Ariz. (13 News) – The Tucson Police Department has identified the suspect in a 1995 cold case.
Back in March 1995, 38-year-old Luis Gustavo Suchite was found at an apartment complex located at 2020 South Columbus Boulevard with a gunshot wound.
The TPD said Suchite was taken to Tucson Medical Center, where he later died.
Detectives said that Suchite had recently had a falling out with his roommate, 20-year-old Jose Luis Mota, who had moved out before the shooting.
At the time, detectives obtained an arrest warrant for Mota and were unable to locate him, according to the TPD.
The TPD said as part of a 2026 Cold Case Unit review, detectives learned Mota had been using an alias. Through relatives, the detectives identified the suspect as Guillermo Enamorado-Flores.

The TPD said that if Enamorado-Flores had been alive, they would seek his arrest for first-degree murder.
The Pima County Attorney’s Office has expected the case to now be closed.
