The driver of the Malibu did not stop when signaled to do so by the state trooper and proceeded to take law enforcement officials on a high speed chase from El Indio Highway, eventually ending up at the Camino Real International Bridge and the vehicle was able to elude capture by crossing into Mexico.
The incident which occurred at approximately 1:00pm coincided at the exact same time that another operation involving federal agencies was taking place, in the same sector of the community. Communication was intertwined and caused some confusion as if only one incident was occurring, but it was later clarified that there were two distinct incidents.
