A woman saw the post while in Florida and called a Sheriff’s Office in Nevada to report the crime because it was the last place she knew Mechikoff lived.

From there, that Sheriff’s Office pinpointed the Facebook posting to the Bay Area and reached out to the San Mateo Police Department.

San Mateo police conducted a search of the apartment complex at the 200 block of 37th Avenue. After the door-to-door search, officers found Estrella dead on the kitchen floor. Mechikoff was found and arrested a few hours later in San Jose, according to the DA’s Office.

He will receive a placement report on Aug. 13, Wagstaffe said.
