EL PASO, Texas (KTSM) — A 21-year-old man turned himself in to the El Paso County Constable Office Precinct 3 on Wednesday, April 2, after he was wanted for smuggling and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, the County Constable Office said.
Angel Javier Herrera, 21, contacted the County Constable Office from Juarez and said that deputies were looking for him and that he wanted to turn himself in.
The County Constable Office confirmed that Herrera had an active personal recognizance bond warrant for two counts of smuggling of persons and an active criminal warrant for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
