Despite first responders’ efforts, he was pronounced dead at the scene.as John Creech Jr., 20, of Hayward. He was the city’s fourth homicide of the year.
After investigative work by detectives, leads and evidence led them to identify Emmanuel Padilla Maciel as a suspect in Creech’s killing, and an Alameda County judge granted an arrest warrant in June 2022, followed in February by a second warrant from the district attorney’s office. On April 14, Padilla Maciel was entering the United States from Mexico when a warrant turned up during a check by U.S. Customs and Border Protections agents, who detained him until Hayward police could take custody Wednesday, Hayward police said in a statement.
