HIDALGO COUNTY - The suspected teenage smuggler involved in a deadly pursuit Thursday now sits behind bars facing a murder charge.

Fernando Cuevas Camacho said very little as he was charged with murder Friday. The sheriff said the 17-year-old smuggler accused of leading a deadly pursuit is responsible for the death of his passenger.

The judge ordered he be held on $2 million bond.

Deputies said Camacho fled from Hidalgo County constables south of Mission Thursday.

Hidalgo County deputies are still investigating the case, trying to find out to whom the car belongs. The vehicle had Tamaulipas plates, and Camacho is a U.S. citizen.
