AMARILLO, TEXAS -- A second fugitive wanted for engaging in organized criminal activity has been captured.

A Crime Stoppers tip led police to Elizabeth Nelson, who was located in a mobile home park on I-40 East. Nelson is one of the three women alleged to be part of a drug ring operation.

Another fugitive Candida Pacheco was found earlier this week hiding in a dryer in a home on North Kentucky.

Police are still searching for the third suspect, Viviana Sanchez, who also has a parole violation warrant for possession of a controlled substance.

Call Crime Stoppers at 374-4400 if you have any information on her whereabouts.
