A father and his four children are missing after a high speed chase with police in Houston, Texas, reports KENS5 News.
Noe Soto-Aranda, 31, and his wife, Luz Lacayo, were pulled over on Wednesday around 6:30 p.m., after a citizen called the police after seeing the couple arguing while driving on the freeway in Bissonnet, Texas.
After the police located them and pulled them over, Lacayo was attempting to get the children out of the truck when Aranda jumped into the driver’s seat and sped away with the children.

Deputies said that Lacayo was driving because Aranda had been drinking. During the chase, Aranda caused an accident in Stafford.
Investigators believe that Aranda and the children ages 3-9, slept at a home on the 5200 block of F.M. 3013.
“There’s a travel-trailer behind the house that looks like people slept there and there was an ice cream container with four spoons in it,” Sgt. Matt Ochoa with the Texas Dept. of Public Safety told KHOU news.
Aranda is believed to have stolen a 2011 red Hyundai Sonata from a home near there, as one had been parked in a drive way and was missing the following morning.
Aranda has several open warrants including an evading charge and is now facing charges of assault, endangering a child and evading arrest.
If you have any information about Aranda or the children’s location, please contact the Houston Police Missing Persons Unit at 713-731-5223.
