FALLBROOK
A Camp Pendleton Marine believed to be the last person in the company of a 22-year-old missing Fallbrook woman has been arrested on suspicion of possessing an assault rifle stolen from the military base, sheriffs officials said Monday.
Louis Ray Perez, 45, was booked into jail on Sunday night and has been
very uncooperative with homicide detectives investigating the disappearance of Brittany Killgore, said sheriffs Lt. Larry Nesbit.
Killgore, who shares a second-story apartment near Camp Pendleton's gates with her husband, was last seen by a friend Friday wearing a deep purple evening dress with a glittery floral pattern. Her cellphone was found by trolley security in the Gaslamp Quarter, although detectives said Monday they have reason to believe she never left the Fallbrook area.
The investigation led detectives to Perez and to De Luz Canyon, where authorities were searching Monday for signs of Killgore, Nesbit said. The Naval Criminal Investigative Service is assisting in the case.
Based on our investigation to this point, we believe there is a strong likelihood Brittany is the victim of foul play, Nesbit said.
Perez was booked into San Diego jail on suspicion of illegal possession of an assault weapon and receiving stolen property. He is being held on $500,000 bail.
Details on Perez's military career, including his unit and rank, have not been released.
Authorities did not elaborate on the relationship between Killgore and Perez.
According to court records,
Killgore filed for divorce from her husband on Tuesday. Her husband, Cory, also an active-duty Camp Pendleton Marine, is deployed overseas and is not suspected of being involved, Nesbit said.
Arrangements are being made for her husband to return from Afghanistan, according to apartment manger Elli August, who spoke to his parents.
The couple married in the summer of 2010 and moved into the unit at La Galiana de Cortez Apartments in Fallbrook about a month later.
August and her husband, Earl, described Killgore as reserved, saying she doesnt venture from her apartment often and does not work.
Family members from both sides were headed to San Diego Monday to deal with the case.
Investigators who responded to the apartment complex on Saturday appeared interested in a large white SUV parked in the Killgores space, near Killgores own vehicle, the Augusts said. The SUV had a large Marine insignia on the back.
Killgore is 5 feet 7 inches tall, 130 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes..

BBM - so IMO, this LP may have been someone she was involved with (& maybe the reason why she decided to file for divorce?).
