SAN ANTONIO — A driver and her male passenger were taken into custody following a nearly 20-mile-long high-speed pursuit. 

According to an official with BCSO, a deputy observed a car driving recklessly near 410 and San Pedro around 2:15 a.m. Friday. 

The deputy tried to conduct a traffic stop, but the driver took off at speeds exceeding 100 mph, and at one point reached speeds of nearly 120 mph.
