The sheriff said the Monday afternoon incident was all part of a larger investigation.
Sheriff Treviño said authorities have had a suspected gang stash house under surveillance.
Treviño said gang members used the home to keep stolen goods from area home invasions.
The two men led deputies on a chase from the home to I road and the expressway.

"We're gonna do everything that we can to dismantle this gang and put them all away until we are done with them,” Sheriff Treviño said.
The two men will be facing charges they are expected to be arraigned on Tuesday morning.
