..FUGITIVE murder suspect Nai Yin Xue's hopes of blending quietly into the US's vast Chinese community have been dashed.
Xue's face today was plastered across the biggest-selling Chinese language newspaper in the US.
The sad tale of the murder of Xue's wife Anan Liu in New Zealand and the dumping of his three-year-old daughter Qian Xun Xue at a Melbourne railway station made the front page of the LA-based Chinese Daily News.
The story, which continued to page three, included seven photos of Xue and his dead wife and abandoned daughter.
There are 3.5 million Chinese Americans, so the report and photos could spark sightings and leads in the hunt for Xue in the US.
"Police say he could be in Los Angeles so it is a big story for us," newspaper spokesman Albert Chen said.
US authorities have confirmed Xue landed at Los Angeles international airport on Saturday.
The Los Angeles affiliate of US TV network ABC reported today that Xue caught an airport shuttle bus to Chinatown near city's downtown region, adding to the theory Xue hoped to blend into the large Chinese community.
Xue also knows the area well after spending time in Los Angeles in 2000.
The FBI, US Marshals, the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) and US immigration officials are involved in the hunt for Xue.
An alert, called a red notice, issued by international crime fighting agency Interpol yesterday gave the official green light to American authorities to pursue Xue.
"We're currently working with the FBI, Immigration and Custom's Enforcement (ICE) and the US Marshal's office to try to locate him," LAPD officer Karen Smith said.
Most Los Angeles TV stations, in their news bulletins last night and this morning, aired the the story about the hunt for Xue.
They showed the security footage of Xue walking with his daughter before dumping her in the Melbourne railway station.
Footage was also shown of the car in Auckland where Xue's 27-year-old wife was found dead in the boot.
A post-mortem examination of Ms Liu's body was carried out yesterday and preliminary findings found she died during a violent episode.
