According to the Dallas County Sheriff’s Office, 27-year-old Manuel Ochoa of Perry had three felony counts added to his original charges stemming from an incident last Wednesday. Ochoa was pulled over on the north end of Minburn on Highway 169 for speeding. He attempted to run from deputies, but was subdued with a taser.
