33-year-old Daniel Scott Walker led authorities in a high-speed chase starting in Gainesville, Texas and ending in Ardmore, Oklahoma. Gainesville Police Chief Kevin Phillips said an officer caught the truck driving 83 mph in a 60-mph zone late Friday night. Chief Phillips said, “when the officer attempted to make a traffic stop the vehicle failed to stop and initiated a pursuit.” Police say during the chase the suspect threw out an empty water bottle with white powder inside, which they think is some sort of narcotic. Gainesville Police tried to use spike strips on the truck but they didn't work, and the driver continued north on I-35 into Oklahoma. Once in Oklahoma, the Oklahoma Highway Patrol stepped in to help and finally arrested Walker. His charges in Oklahoma include eluding a police officer, running a road block, and DUI.

An easily-identifiable suspect is behind bars after he allegedly stole a patrol car on Monday night. Sheriff Jim Weir with the Grady County Sheriff’s Department in Oklahoma said, “All he had on was a pair of gym shorts.” The Sheriff added, “No shoes, no socks, no shirt – pair of gym shorts. And, he was almost completely covered, I would almost guess 70 to 80 percent of his body is covered in tattoos.” Deputies with the Grady County Sheriff’s Department were investigating the burglary of a home in Ninnekah. When they arrived at the scene, deputies were able to take Jason Ostrom into custody. After handcuffing Ostrom, a deputy placed him in the front seat of a patrol car. (https://goo.gl/7beFnF)

MOMENT OF DUH:By LearnWithoutLoans.com (Find Funding For College)
Police have arrested a 35-year-old New Mexico man suspected of calling in a bomb threat to a local eatery. Emmanuel Soriano has been charged with one count of unlawful bomb scare. About noon on Wednesday, August 8th, Las Cruces Police were dispatched to the report of a bomb threat at the Corner Bakery. The business was cleared and nothing suspicious was located. Police learned that Soriano is related to one of the store’s employees and had made multiple telephone calls to the business during the morning, trying to talk to his relative. The relative refused to take any of his phone calls. Investigators allege that Soriano called 9-1-1 and made the bomb threat. They confirmed that the call came from near Soriano’s residence. Soriano indicated that he made the bomb threat because the store was no longer taking his calls.
