Deputy: "We have multiple 39 drivers at the Isleta Amphitheater. I know there have been several vehicles that have currently been called out in described and have been racing each other."

Deputies said vehicles were racing through the parking lot, going in and out of traffic, and putting families attending a soccer game on University Blvd. at risk. Deputies tried to stop a white Chrysler they say stood out, but the driver fled. With the help of Metro One, they were able to arrest 22-year-old Fernando Martinez in the San Jose neighborhood.
