A Mexican man who attacked a Border Patrol agent last week near Donna, Texas, has been arrested, Valley Central reports.
The attack allegedly occurred following a high-speed chase after a Chevrolet Tahoe nearly struck a Border Patrol vehicle in an area “notorious for undocumented aliens and narcotic crossing,” federal record show.
The high-speed chase ended with Roberto Flores-Cayetano leaping out of the Tahoe and running, officials said in a criminal complaint.
“Agent Hernandez advised Flores-Cayetano to stay on the ground and to put his hands behind his back, but he refused,” according to the criminal complaint.
A struggle ensued, and the agent used a Taser to subdue the suspect.
A passenger got away and left behind about 524 pounds of marijuana.
The passenger remains on the loose.
