Troopers say he was walking on the side of Interstate 75 in Collier County. When they stopped him, they say he initially said his name was Recardo, but immediately recanted and gave them his real name.

Troopers say they ran a “want / warrant” check, which revealed Alejandro was a fugitive of justice from Texas.

He is in the Collier County Jail waiting for extradition back to Texas.
