Plano police are asking for the public's help in solving a 26 year old murder.
Back in January of 1997, an unidentified Hispanic man was found shot to death in a field at the southwest corner of State Highway 121 and Independence Parkway.
An autopsy later determined the man had been murdered inside a home in October of 1996 that was under construction at the corner of Independence Parkway and Ridgeview Drive. His body was then moved to the field.
Reports say the victim was believed to be a construction painter who may have been working in the area. Now, more than two decades later, detectives have identified the man as Martin Trevino.
Police say Tervino lived in Fort Worth and worked in new home construction in Plano. He was originally from Mexico.
Detectives are attempting to get in contact with family members and looking for any information that could help confirm the identity of Martin Trevino and details surrounding his death.
