It's April 20th, I'm Cory with the story, this is El Paso News today, driven by AI. A 28-year-old New Mexico resident named Miguel Angolanchondo is locked up in El Paso County jail after leading police on a wild chase across the Texas New Mexico border that turned into a full standoff. It all kicked off last Friday, April 17th, when El Paso cops tried to pull him over on Sonland Park Drive near some shops. He bolted instead, with Texas Department of Public Safety jumping in, and the pursuit crossed straight into Anthony New Mexico. Folks in Anthony felt that he'd quick, City Hall went on lockdown, and a pre-K plus two elementary schools switched to secure hold as a precaution while, and condo barricaded himself in a house. Multiple agencies like local police, county sheriffs, and state troopers swarmed the scene to contain it. By 5.45 pm, that same day, two people were in custody, ending the standoff, though details on the second suspect stay under wraps.

And Shondo faced two felony evading charges. One from this incident, another from back on March 30th, and got extra-dited to Texas, book Sunday on A, $65,000 bond. Investigations still rolling, but El Paso police are shouting out all the agencies for their tight teamwork, keeping everyone safe.
