EL PASO, Texas (KFOX14\/CBS4) \u2014 Two men were arrested Saturday after they reportedly refused to pull over and led authorities in a chase in Far East El Paso.<\/p>\n

According to the El Paso County Sheriff’s Office, Dylan Cordero and Gerardo Hernandez, both 34-year-olds, were arrested after they tried to outrun the law during a traffic stop at the 12500 block of Montana Avenue.<\/p>\n

The Sheriff’s Office said it was around 8:20 p.m. when deputies saw a blue Nissan Maxima violate multiple traffic laws, yet when they tried to pull the Nissan over, the vehicle continued, accelerating eastward on Montana Avenue.<\/p>\n

Deputies then called troopers from the Texas Department of Public Safety for help, and together they performed a PIT maneuver, bringing the Nissan Maxima to a stop at the 4000 block of Square Dance Road.<\/p>\n

Both suspects then allegedly climbed out of the car and tried to make a run for it before they were arrested.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Hernandez was identified as the passenger of the Nissan and is being charged with evading arrest or detention, tampering with or fabricating physical evidence, and manufacture or delivery of a controlled substance, with bond set at $ 38,000.<\/p>\n

The El Paso County Sheriff’s Office shared dashcam and bodycam video showing the chase and subsequent arrest. <\/p>\n

At one point in the chase, you can see a door open in the Nissan Maxima and a person waving their hands at pursuing law enforcement.<\/p>\n

Also in the video, you can hear one suspect cry out that “there is a girl in the car.” <\/p>\n

It is unclear if there were more people in the car, as the Sheriff’s press release did not specify.<\/p>\n

That same suspect can then be heard complaining that he can’t breathe while he is being handcuffed, saying what appears to be, “I have asthma.”<\/p>\n
