Police confirmed that a person of interest has been identified in the case. Now, police say they also have a vehicle identified and are working with the Cameron County District Attorney’s office to obtain an indictment.

The 19-year-old from San Benito went missing after her shift at the McDonalds on Sunshine Strip on July 17, 2016. Surveillance video shows Rodriguez speaking to a man inside a light-colored SUV. Police say Rodriguez later left with him.

"Our hope was that if we could identify the vehicle, we would be able to identify the male,” Yanes said.

That man could have been the last to see Nahomi alive.

A memorial is now set up at the spot where her remains were found near Rio Hondo in 2017.

“We are working closely with the district attorney’s office on the investigation, as well,” Yanes said. “Our hope is that an indictment will be obtained here against him pretty imminently."

Police have not named the man, but they know where he is.

Channel 5 News reached out to Nahomi Rodriguez’s family, who released the following statement:
