Deputy Burden made contact with the driver who provided false identifying information. Through further investigation, Deputy Burden was able to positively identify the driver as 32 year old Rolando Soto-Razo. A check of Soto’s information revealed two open felony warrants through Harris County Sheriff’s Office for Retaliation and Aggravated Assault of Family Member. As Deputy Burden attempted to place Soto in custody, he began to flee on foot. Deputy Burden deployed his Taser and gained control of Soto. He was placed in custody and escorted back to the patrol vehicle where he continued to resist. Deputy Burden conducted a search incident to arrest and recovered a handgun from Soto’s backpack. The Harris County District Attorney’s Office was contacted and accepted additional charges for Evading Arrest/Detention and Fail to ID to Peace Officer. Soto was transported to the Harris County Joint Processing Center where his bonds were set at $200 total.
