Missing Texas Teen Found Safe in St. Johns County as Suspect Jesus Esteban Arellano Is Apprehended After Vehicle Chase

A missing Texas teenager was safely located and a suspect apprehended in St. Johns County, according to a social media post by the local sheriff's office. The 16-year-old girl had been reported missing, and her discovery was part of a broader police operation to arrest 19-year-old Jesus Esteban Arellano, who had outstanding warrants for multiple charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon in Texas. The capture of the suspect occurred after a vehicle chase that ended with a Precision Immobilization Technique (PIT) maneuver by deputies. St. Johns County Sheriff's Office reported the resolution of an intense situation last Saturday, which resulted in both the recovery of the missing juvenile and the detention of Arellano.
