HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- Harris County Pct. 4 deputy constables said they arrested a man who led them on a chase on an ATV.

During the investigation, an acquaintance of Perez, identified as Yarely Ramirez, arrived on the scene driving a vehicle. Authorities say Ramirez displayed signs of intoxication and Precinct 4 deputies administered field sobriety test. She was charged with driving while intoxicated.

Perez was charged with evading in a motor vehicle.
