An illegal immigrant gang member on the run for allegedly killing a man in California went on to kill a woman in Texas before Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents were able to apprehend him, The Daily Wire has learned.
Cambodian citizen Savin Seng, 41, is wanted in California for allegedly murdering 20-year-old Gabriel Isiguzo outside a North Hills strip club in 2022, according to ICE. Authorities said the killing was “unprovoked,” while reports at the time suggested the shooting stemmed from an argument over a handicapped spot outside the club.
Seng then went on to allegedly kill 47-year-old Charminy Lewis in Victoria, Texas, on Friday, authorities said. He was later caught by the Victoria County Sheriff’s Department while walking down the highway with a loaded pistol.
Seng, who goes by the moniker “Two-Face,” admitted to authorities that he’s a member of the Asian Boyz gang and said that he desired to return to his home country, according to court documents. When asked how he obtained a firearm, Seng told officers “that he wasn’t a snitch” and that the “gun fell from the sky and he picked it up.”
“For the second time in three years, this violent criminal alien gang member has allegedly murdered someone and then attempted to flee from authorities,” Homeland Security Investigations Houston Special Agent in Charge Chad Plantz said in a statement shared with The Daily Wire.
“Within just 36 hours, the law enforcement community in Southeast Texas banded together leveraging our various resources to successfully locate him and safely take him into custody before he could harm anyone else,” Plantz added.
Seng has a lengthy rap sheet in California that includes two convictions for burglary and one conviction each for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, felon in possession of a firearm, and domestic violence, according to court records.
Seng entered the United States legally in 1984, but was ordered deported in April 2016, according to ICE.
ICE previously had him in custody, but wasn’t able to obtain travel documents from the Cambodian government to send him back, federal law enforcement sources told The Daily Wire.

In some immigration cases, ICE is unable to deport illegal immigrants home because their countries refuse to accept their own citizens who are egregious criminals. ICE cannot hold detainees indefinitely and is required to release them after a certain period of time.
In an effort to fix the issue, the Trump administration has brokered deals with “third countries” to take in foreign deportees.
A third plane of deportees from the U.S. arrived in the small African nation of Eswatini on Monday as part of the effort, according to Reuters. The Trump administration is also seeking to deport MS-13 gang member Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Eswatini, according to CBS News.
The Asian Boyz started in Southern California in the 1980s, and many of its early members were teenage immigrants from Vietnam, Cambodia, and the Philippines, according to the Los Angeles Times.
