An active straight warrant, with full extradition, has been issued for Flores in relation to Ramos's death.
On December 7, 2022, police officers received reports of gunshots in the area of Pine and Sargeant Streets in Holyoke and arrived to find two empty vehicles that appeared to have involved in a crash and spent shell casings. They soon located Ramos, lying face down in the backyard of a nearby property, suffering from a gunshot wound to the stomach.
Ramos was taken to a local hospital where he was later pronounced dead.
An investigation later determined that Ramos was the gunman and fired more than 10 shots at Ramos
Flores is still at large and police believe him to be actively attempting to evade capture.
The wanted man, who has ties to the greater Springfield area, is described as a Hispanic male standing 5 feet 7 inches tall and weighing approximately 150 pounds. He has brown hair and eyes and a tattoo on his left forearm that says "As I Walk Through the Valley," and a tattoo of the word “Oleanni” on his left ear.
He has also used the aliases Evdyelle Flores and Abdyle Pabon, police say.
Police ask anyone who sees Flores or who has information about him should call 911 or the Massachusetts State Police Violent Fugitive Apprehension Section at 1-800-KAPTURE (1-800-527-8873). If seen, Flores should not be approached.
