Recently released surveillance footage, exclusively obtained by News 23, has starkly depicted the tragic final moments of Daylon Fleitas, a 37-year-old Cuban initially reported missing in Hialeah. Days later, his body was discovered inside a recycling bin. The recording, captured on Sunday, August 3, at a truck parking lot in Medley, vividly details the crime—starting from the encounter with the alleged murderer to the dragging of his lifeless body.
Within the disturbing footage, Alfredo Carballo, the primary suspect who remains at large, is seen approaching Fleitas' truck. Both men enter the vehicle, but moments later, the camera captures the chilling sequence of events: Fleitas' body is seen falling to the ground, with Carballo dragging it without any resistance. Police reports suggest that by this point, Fleitas was already injured or deceased. Subsequently, the assailant is observed placing a recycling bin in the back of Fleitas' truck, driving away with another vehicle following closely behind.
"The victim and the suspect entered the victim's truck. Shortly after, the victim is seen falling from the vehicle and being dragged by the suspect," outlines the Miami-Dade Sheriff's report. The document further reveals that the meeting between the two was intended to settle a $10,000 debt Carballo owed to Fleitas.
Fleitas was officially reported missing on August 7, and the next day, his truck was located in the area of Southwest 210th Street and 203rd Avenue, with visible bloodstains and a nearby backpack. It wasn't until August 9 that homicide detectives found the abandoned recycling bin in a wooded area, which contained Fleitas' body, marked with multiple stab wounds. The county's medical examiner confirmed these injuries as the cause of death. "Investigators located the recycling container… and found the victim inside. The victim had multiple wounds on his body," authorities documented.
Since then, law enforcement has been actively searching for Alfredo Carballo González and his partner, Ariely Álvarez Cabrera, both Cuban nationals, who are on the run with their five-month-old son, Alain Carballo. The Miami-Dade Sheriff's Office has issued an alert regarding the child's disappearance, warning that the adults may be armed and should be considered dangerous.
