WEST EL PASO, TX – Over the past four months, Sheriff’s Deputies assigned to the Civil Section had made several attempts to serve an individual with a Protective Order. Contact by phone had been previously made with the subject who continued to hide & elude Deputies from serving him with the order. The subject would make appointments to meet with Deputies & would deceitfully provide authorities with false places of employment.
Further investigation revealed the subject identified as ISAIAS ESCOBAR (22) of the 800 block of Nita Fay El Paso, TX was a WANTED subject. ESCOBAR was wanted on 5 outstanding criminal warrants (3 out of Hunt County – Dallas, TX). Authorities learned ESCOBAR had an extensive criminal history in Hunt County.
Thursday morning 04-23-09 at approximately 10:30 AM, Strike Team & Civil Section Deputies attempted to make contact with ESCOBAR at his residence located in the 800 block of Nita Fay El Paso, TX. Deputies observed ESCOBAR’S vehicle in the drive way & proceeded to knock on the front door of the residence. Deputies could hear noises emitting from inside the home but no one would answer. After about 30 minutes, a male subject answered the door (subject’s brother) who gave Deputies consent to search the home. Deputies conducted a protective sweep of the home where subject ESCOBAR was hiding in a back bedroom (behind a door). ESCOBAR was taken into custody without incident.
ESCOBAR was arrested for multiple outstanding criminal warrants. He was booked at the El Paso County Detention Facility.
