LEWISVILLE ―Lewisville police are looking for a man suspected of decapitating his wife Monday morning.Police released a picture of 49-year-old Jose Corona, seen at right. They are calling him a "suspect and a person of interest" in the death of his wife.
The Tarrant County Medical Examiner says the victim was 44-year-old Maria Santos Corona. According to friends, the couple has six children.
A mail carrier discovered Maria Corona's body in the middle of the street in the 1000 block of Shadow Wood Lane in Lewisville and contacted police shortly after 11 a.m.
When police arrived they found the body and searched the area for a suspect, but didn't find anyone.
Police will say only that the victim's body was "mutilated." But Chopper 11 video of the scene, which we have chosen not to publish, clearly shows the decapitated body and the head.
Neighbor Chris Cortopassi told CBS 11 News, "I was driving down the street, coming home, and I saw somebody laying on the ground with blood all over. And I saw a girl outside screaming and somebody trying to hold her back."
Police say they don't know if the murder took place at the home or somewhere else.
Police say Jose Corona may be driving a 2005 Toyota Sequoia SUV with Texas license plate 247-DVH. Police say he has relatives in Oklahoma and in Mexico.
If you have seen Jose Corona or know his whereabouts, you're asked to call 911 or Lewisville Police at (972) 219-3640.
