Where Are You, Mario Lozano? FBI Offers $20K Reward Leading To His Arrest

Watsonville police issued a plea for assistance Monday to find a suspect in the 2004 stabbing death of a 17-year-old boy.

Mario Lozano, 29, is suspected to have fled to Mexico to avoid capture for the Dec. 3, 2004, death of Isaac Guzman in Watsonville.

Guzman was found stabbed in front of Hector’s Bakery at 301 Airport Blvd. at about 4 p.m. that day. Witnesses told police that Lozano chased Guzman and stabbed him several times as he tried to get away.

Lozano is the only suspect in the stabbing, according to police. A warrant for Lozano’s arrest was issued shortly after the stabbing. Lozano is described as a Hispanic man standing 5 feet 8 inches tall, weighing 150 pounds with black hair and brown eyes.

He has a tattoo that says “Roxanne” on the right side of his neck along with a large birthmark. He also has a tattoo of four dots on his left wrist, police said.

The FBI is offering a $20,000 reward for information leading to his arrest.

Anyone with information about Lozano has been asked to call the Watsonville police Investigations Division at (831) 768-3389 or the tip line at (831) 768-3350.
