Police report

When officers arrived, the homeowner and suspect were still fighting

A Lufkin man was scammed for thousands of dollars after believing a scammer's story about his son's arrest.

According to a press release from the Angelina County Sheriff's Office, deputies and detectives of the ACSO are continuing to investigate a rash of vehicle burglaries which occurred over the weekend in the area of FM 1194 and in the area of the Idlewood Subdivision of Angelina County.

Late Wednesday night, what started as a traffic stop escalated into a high speed pursuit that lasted around an hour encompassing Highway 103 East and FM 326.

The Lufkin Police Special Response Team took a man into custody who kidnapped his girlfriend after shooting a man in a local apartment complex parking lot early Thursday morning.

A Lufkin teenager was arrested early Tuesday morning following a chase that spanned 3 counties and reached speeds up to 120 mph.

The Lufkin Police Department is investigating an armed robbery that happened at Subway on Champions Drive Sunday evening.

There's an old saying, "When you gotta go, you gotta go."  That doesn't necessarily mean you should go right then and there, especially if you're talking to Lufkin's finest.

Sunday morning around 11, a Lufkin Police Officer was sent to the intersection of North Raguet and North John Redditt Drive (Loop 287) in reference to a naked man in the road.

It's probably good advice that when an officer of the law tells you to do something, you do it.  A Lufkin man found that out the hard way.

Police responded to a rash of vehicle burglaries Tuesday night along South First Street in Lufkin.  A total of 6 vehicles were broken into and all of them were 'F-series' Ford pick-up trucks.
