Pablo Garcia of Safford, Arizona was being held in Graham County Jail on numerous DUI charges when he made his escape on Tuesday. But Associated Press reports that he he was on the loose for less than one day before authorities were able to catch up with him in Pinal County, just southeast of Phoenix.
The man was surprisingly able to scale a wall topped with razor wire and then make a getaway; all while avoiding injury. Deputies say that they were able to track down a cell phone used by 20-year-old Garcia in the Casa Grande Area. He was then arrested again in a motel along with his girlfiend Jessica Dorame. As it turns out, Ms. Dorame had already had an outstanding arrest warrant.
ABC News reports that both Mr. Garcia and Ms. Dorame are currently being held in the Pinal County Adult Detention Facility in Florence. Mr. Garcia better hope he can get a skilled Arizona DUI attorney to help him with his cases. In addition to his DUI charges, the man has also been charged with auto theft, disorderly conduct with a weapon, burglary, and unlawful flight from law enforcement. It's likely that he will be charged with more crimes after he has unlawfully left jail.
In Arizona DUI charges are taken very seriously, but often coincide with other charges. It's not exactly uncommon to see a person charged with driving under the influence and another criminal charge in connection with the same incident. An Arizona DUI attorney typically focuses on DUI cases, but can also defend a suspect against other criminal matters as well.
