“Le voy llamar a la policía” If you are filled with instant panic whenever you see a police officer or a police car, it’s likely because your parents said they’ll call the cops to come take you away and put you in jail if you misbehaved. Some gaucho parents probably went so far as to have a police officer go along with pretending to arrest you if you were especially necio. Photo via Shutterstock Credit: Shutterstock

Bexar County Sheriff’s Deputies arrested four juvenile suspects early Friday for what authorities allege was a wild ride in a stolen vehicle, News4SA reports.

Around 12:30 a.m. Friday, a deputy spotted a vehicle driving recklessly on the wrong side of the road in East San Antonio, the station reports.

The deputy pursued the vehicle down Farm-to-Market Road 78 to the frontage road of Loop 410 South. All four occupants bailed out of the moving vehicle, allowing it to crash into a street sign, according to authorities.

Bexar deputies were able to round up and arrest all four suspects with the help of a San Antonio Police Department helicopter, according to News4.

All four suspects were charged with felony evading arrest and charges related to vehicle theft. Deputies also say they found marijuana in the vehicle.
