Camaron Abundes

Camaron Abundes anchors CHANNEL 5 NEWS SATURDAY MORNING and CHANNEL 5 NEWS SUNDAY MORNING. She also reports for the evening newscasts. She’s thrilled to call KRGV-TV and the Rio Grande Valley her new home.

It’s a long way from Northern California. Camaron grew up in Stockton. She loves the food and friendly people who live in this part of Texas.

Her loving parents, two brothers, wonderful extended family and friends have always supported her pursuit of happiness. In 2007, she completed her B.A. at California State University Fullerton.

She moved to Midland in February 2007 to work at the NBC affiliate KWES-TV.  Camaron learned how to report, anchor, and produce newscasts during her time in Midland.

In October 2009, she joined the CHANNEL 5 NEWS team.

When she isn’t reporting, she enjoys good food, hanging out with friends, and playing with Raiden, her border collie.
