Authorities said all five suspects are members of the deadly MS-13 street gang.
Castro-Martinez was a police informant and was wearing a recording device when he was found dead, according to the Houston Chronicle. However, Police Chief Art Acevedo said he wasn't killed because he was an informant but rather because he was a member of a rival MS-13 gang.
