The Kern County Sheriff's Office is asking for the community's help in finding a suspect linked to a August 2007 murder.

KCSO is searching for Eleazar Duque, who they believe shot two men at a billiards hall at Mercado Latino, killing one.

The Sheriff's Office believes Duque fled to Mexico after the murder, and said Duque has used several different aliases in the past, including Pedro Medrano, Elias Ambriz and Pedro Fernandez.

KCSO asks anyone with information to call the office at 861-3110 or the Secret Witness hotline at 322-4040.
