Three Juveniles Arrested After Stolen Vehicle Pursuit in Harris County

On August 2, 2024, deputies with Constable Mark Herman’s Office conducted a traffic stop on a stolen vehicle in the 2900 block of Hirschfield Road. The driver refused to stop, leading deputies on a brief pursuit. During the pursuit, the driver attempted to strike a deputy with the vehicle, but the deputy was able to jump out of harm’s way. Constable deputies managed to stop the vehicle, but three occupants exited and fled on foot. After a quick foot pursuit, all three suspects were apprehended and identified as 13 and 14-year-old juvenile males.

Further investigation revealed that the 13-year-old driver had an ankle monitor and had been previously charged with two counts of Unauthorized Use of a Motor Vehicle, Criminal Trespass, Evading Arrest, and Burglary.

“All three suspects were arrested and booked into the Harris County Juvenile Detention Center. The driver was charged with Aggravated Assault on a Police Officer, Unauthorized Use of a Motor Vehicle, and Evading in a Motor Vehicle. The two juvenile passengers were charged with Evading Arrest,” stated Constable Mark Herman.
