Hit and Run Suspect Captured While Taking Catnap, Thanks to Alert Citizen

May 18, 2020 — Just after 2:00 p.m., San Angelo Police were dispatched to 29th and Martin Luther King Drive for the report of a hit and run crash where the suspect driver fled on foot. 

Officers converged on the area, observed the suspect running and a foot pursuit ensued; however, the suspect was not located. 

The initial crash investigation revealed the suspect vehicle, a stolen Dodge Ram pickup truck out of Crockett County with a freshly painted passenger compartment and bumpers, was traveling south on MLK when he disregarded a red light and collided into a Checker Cab minivan that was traveling eastbound on 29th Street.  The driver of the cab was not injured.     

Around 4:00 p.m., San Angelo Police responded to a residence in the unit block of West 30th Street for the report of a suspicious man who appeared to be asleep underneath a vehicle.  Units arrived and identified the subject as the hit and run driver.  Officers also noticed the subject’s clothing was covered in paint.  The subject was identified as 34-year-old Jonathan D. Borrego.  

Borrego has been charged with Evading Arrest Detention.  Additional charges are pending the outcome of this ongoing investigation.
