SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY, Calif. — The San Joaquin County Sheriffs Office has made an arrest in a 2017 cold case.
Oscar Diaz Cortez, was arrested by the Cold Case Unit for attempted homicide and kidnapping, the sheriff's office said in Facebook post.
When asked by phone for more information about the killing, such as the victim's identity, a sheriff's office spokesperson said detectives don't want more released at this time.
