July 19th – At approximately 2:00am, Officer Robert Todd arrested a 48-year-old Howe resident for DWI (3rd) after stopping him in the 700 block of N. Collins for a traffic violation.  A search warrant was obtained for a sample of the suspect’s blood. He was taken to a local hospital for the blood draw and then to the Grayson County Jail.

July 17th – at approximately 7pm, Officer Keith Milks arrested an 18-year- old Van Alstyne woman for DWI and PCS PG 3 after stopping her for a traffic violation on US Hwy 75.  A search of her vehicle revealed two prescription Diazepam tablets for which she did not have a prescription. The suspect refused a request for a blood sample, so a search warrant was obtained. She was taken to a local hospital for the blood draw and then to the Grayson County Jail.

On Wednesday night, former Howe ace pitcher and Tampa Bay Rays prospect Garrett Fulenchek was hit by a liner in the right shin.  Fulenchek was removed from the game after the inning and x-rays were taken immediately which came back negative.

He will be evaluated over the next few days to see how long he will be out of action.  The line drive was clocked at 98 miles per hour coming off the bat.  He has a massive bruise on his shin.

 

The City of Howe budgets $50,000 annually for street repair and today the “tree district” of Maple, Pecan, Ricketts and Mayo are getting attention from Grayson County Precinct 1.  The street repair extends down Ricketts Street from L.B. Kirby Ave to Mayo Street.  Also, they are resurfacing Pecan Street from Farmington Rd to Ricketts Street.  The crew is also preparing a stretch of Mayo Street to Maple Street.

Former Howe Bulldog Garrett Fulenchek threw one shutout inning vs. Kingsport tonight.  That one inning was good enough to place him in the record books with his first career win.  Fulencheck struckout one batter and has dropped his ERA to 4.50 on the season.

The win puts his career record at 1-8 in his 16 games pitches thus far in his young career.  He’s thrown 45.2 innings and struck out 39 in outings now split with the Rays and Braves organization.  He has yet to give up a run since being traded to the Rays organization.
