Deputies found the remains of 42-year-old Brandie Frazier in the 17000 block of Palm Road, near Lake Mathews, at 11 a.m. on Sept. 1, according to the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department.

The officers had responded to a residence at the location after receiving a report of a dead body, the Sheriff’s Department said.

The vehicle has black wheels and a pink Chevy emblem in the front, the Sheriff’s Department said.

Authorities urged anyone who sees Escoto or his SUV to call 911 and refrain from approaching him.
