(Deming) – Local Border Patrol agents this week arrested a man driving a reported stolen vehicle.
According to a media release, the agents spotted a blue Kia sedan traveling north on New Mexico State Road 146 – or the Hachita Highway – at about 12:40 a.m. Monday.
The agents checked the license plate for more information on the vehicle and noted that the plate did not match the vehicle description.
As agents activated their emergency lights to pull the vehicle over, the driver sped off and recklessly drove the sedan all over the roadway.
Once the driver, later identified as Jesse Evans Johnson, was in custody, a criminal data base search revealed an extensive criminal history and a stolen vehicle report out of Globe, Arizona.
