Man Charged With Murder Of Asheboro Woman

Deputies believe that he killed Soledad Ortiz and left her body on the side of an Asheboro road.

ASHEBORO, N.C. — Randolph County Deputies say they've arrested the man they believe killed a woman and left her body on the side of the road. 

Back on October 17, a body was found on the side of Old Lexington Road in Asheboro. The body had several gunshot wounds and was determined to be the body of Soledad Ortiz.

Detectives said she was with two men that day. One of them was allegedly Juan Carlos Matomoros-Godoy. 

Matomoros-Godoy has a previous charge of Assault on a Female in Nash county. Investigators couldn't find a home for Matomoros-Godoy. So they asked Nash County deputies to check with the complainant from his assault charges. That's where they found and arrested Matomoros-Godoy. They found a gun that was connected to the shooting of Ortiz. 

Authorities had two warrants out for Juan Carolos Matomoros-Godoy. One for kidnapping and one for murder. He's been charged with the First-Degree Murder of Soledad Ortiz.

Deputies are still looking for the other man seen with Godoy and Ortiz that day. Call 336-318-6699 or Crime Stoppers at 336-672-7463 if you want to remain anonymous.
