Eviel De Jesus Zamudio was also arrested in connection with human smuggling. He was identified as the smuggling guide and charged with three counts of smuggling of persons, according to Olivarez.

Olivarez said both men led law enforcement on a high speed vehicle chase on I-69 when DPS troopers initiated a PIT maneuver. But both Rojas and Zamudio then fled on foot.

Both men were quickly apprehended, along with three undocumented migrants that were found inside the vehicle. Those migrants were referred to the U.S. Border Patrol, according to Olivarez.
