A Raymondville man is facing multiple charges after crashing into a game room and injuring one woman, according to the Willacy County Sheriff’s Office.
George Mendez was arrested on three charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and one count of criminal mischief, according to a news release.
The crash happened Thursday at around 10 a.m. as multiple law enforcement agencies pursued a gray minivan driven by Mendez that crashed into the Silver Dollar Game Room, located at 5158 I-69E.
“The building was occupied at the moment and injuries did occur,” the news release stated. “One female was transported to a local hospital in Cameron County for a back injury.”
Officials have yet to say when led to the police pursuit.
