Avalos to serve year in jail after probation revocation
Reymundo Avalos HS, 28, was ordered to serve one year in county jail after a Tuesday probation revocation hearing in Val Verde County Court-At-Law. The judge found Avalos violated probation terms by missing appointments and failing to pay fines. The case stems from a June incident where he allegedly stole a Del Rio police patrol car, led police to the Port of Entry, and injured a U.S. Customs officer before fleeing to Mexico.
