A 19-year-old who escaped Gwinnett County cops three times — most notably by jumping out of a second-story window while on live TV — has been extradited to Georgia after being arrested in Texas last month.
Emmanuel Holcomb appeared in court Monday to face 20 charges, which include 10 felonies, Channel 2 Action News. He was denied bond, according to jail records.
His escapes from law enforcement began April 12 when he and another suspect, Gary Weaver, were accused of shooting 26 rounds at a home in the 2300 block of Pate Brook Road after arguing with the teenage resident and his mother, AJC.com previously reported.
The two were chased by officers before crashing a 2016 Kia Forte near Pate Road and Springdale Drive and running away, the incident report said. No one was hurt during the incident.

On April 23, he fled a Duluth police traffic stop, caused a wreck and then stole a woman’s cellphone during his escape, police previously told AJC.com.

About two weeks later, Gwinnett deputies attempted to arrest him at a home in the 5000 block of Duval Point Way. Investigators told Channel 2 he was involved in a SWAT standoff last year in the same home.
However, he ended up jumping out of a window this time and escaping capture, which was shown to viewers of the A&E show "Live PD." The TV show followed several law enforcement agencies from across the country, switching between live feeds during arrests and investigations.

On May 10, he was found in Dallas by police offices and the U.S. Marshals Service. He attempted to jump from another upstairs window, but he ended up turning himself in after “seeing the show of force exhibited by Texas authorities,” the Gwinnett sheriff’s office previously said in a Facebook post announcing his arrest.

During his court appearance, he asked the judge what his charges were, and it took the judge over a minute to read his 20 charges, Channel 2 reported.
He faces five counts of aggravated assault, five counts of possession of a firearm with the intent to commit a felony and 10 misdemeanors, according to jail records.
