On Monday, February 10, 2025, at 12:37pm, officers were dispatched to the area of Weber/Holly in reference to a road rage incident. Additional callers advised a female ran inside of a business at the 5900 block of Weber in an attempt to get away from her ex-boyfriend. 

Officers arrived and located the female victim, who did not have any injuries. The victim told officers that her ex-boyfriend had intentionally struck her vehicle with his vehicle and attempted numerous times to get inside of her vehicle. Officers determined that the call was not road rage but a domestic violence incident. 

The male had fled the scene in his vehicle, which officers located on the 1900 block of Gaslight St. The male, identified as 28-year-old Alexander Lopez, began running from officers. Officers set up a perimeter and K9 and Drone officers assisted on scene. Lopez was located underneath a house at the 1900 block of Paul Jones and taken into custody. He was arrested for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and evading arrest.  

Lopez was transported to a local hospital for medical clearance. Once he was medically cleared, he was transported to the City Detention Center for booking.

CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas – A federal jury in Corpus Christi has returned a guilty verdict against a 30-year-old local man for being a felon in possession of a firearm, announced U.S. Attorney Alamdar S. Hamdani.

The jury deliberated for 17 minutes following a one-day trial before finding Michael Pulido guilty.

On Feb. 7, 2024, authorities arrived at a local apartment complex following a criminal mischief complaint. The investigation led them to Pulido who had fired four gunshots inside his apartment.

They checked his criminal history and discovered Pulido had been previously convicted of a felony. As such, he is prohibited from possessing a firearm or ammunition per federal law.  

At trial, the defense attempted to convince the jury that the gun belonged to someone else. They were not convinced and found him guilty as charged.

U.S. District Judge Nelva Gonzales Ramos presided over the trial and set sentencing for April 15, at which time Pulido faces up to five years in federal prison and a possible $250,000 maximum fine.

Corpus Christi Police Department and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives conducted the investigation. Assistant U.S. Attorneys Yasmine Tucker and Ashley Martin prosecuted the case.
