lufkin police report

Have you seen Jayla Carter? The 15 year old from Lufkin was last seen wearing a gray sweater and tan pants.

August 1 proved to be a very interesting day for criminal activity in Lufkin, Texas.

A man shopping at the Home Depot in Lufkin took it upon himself to chase down a would be robber and to forcefully retrieve a stolen drill.  This is how the incident played out according to a Lufkin Police report:

There's an old saying that goes 'Confession is good for the soul'.  Well, a Longview woman may have had the right intent, but not the correct state of mind.

Wednesday, just after 10pm, Lufkin Police received a call concerning a black male pointing a gun at a white female near the intersection of Davis and Setliff Streets, which is about 3 blocks south of Garrett Primary School.

This is the wrong way to try for a 'clean record'. Late Friday night Lufkin police responded to Rowe Avenue and found 31 year old Clifton Garrett intoxicated and on the side of the road trying to bathe in a street puddle.

Sometimes we curse technology, or in this case, sometimes we love it's benefits...unless your the accused thief, then you're probably still cursing it.

A caller informed Lufkin Police that around 9 o'clock Wednesday evening a man driving a vehicle at the intersection of Woodmont and Hopkins struck and damaged a stop sign. The man fled from the scene in his car,  but he was quite easy for LPD to track down.

When you combine alcohol, drugs, and guns, the outcome can't be good. Monday evening around 9, Lufkin Police received calls about someone firing shots near the intersection of Pershing and Bynum.

Hello Officer, make mine a double. Kevin Summers of Lufkin was arrested Wednesday morning in the 2900 block of South John Redditt Drive and charged with public intoxication.
