According to a press release, Howe police officer Jordan Clark arrested a 32-year-old Willow Park, TX woman for possessing nearly a pound of Methamphetamine early Tuesday morning.  She was also charged for possessing 107 un-prescribed Hydrocodone tablets, less than 2 ounces of Marijuana, Unauthorized Use of a Motor Vehicle, and Tampering with Identification Numbers.

Police say the woman was stopped for a traffic violation on around 2:00am as she was traveling south on US Hwy 75 in Howe.  After noticing the driver was extremely nervous and had conflicting travel plans, reports indicate that Officer Clark became suspicious and asked for consent to search the truck she was driving.  Officer Clark said the woman refused to allow him to search.  Police say Bells police officer Scott Kilmer arrived at the scene and that his canine “Gypsy” alerted to the presence of a narcotic odor coming from inside the woman’s vehicle.

The press release stated that the search revealed 14 ounces of Methamphetamine, Hydrocodone tablets, Marijuana, and a .380 pistol with altered serial numbers inside.  Additionally police say they discovered that the 2015 Toyota Tundra was stolen out of Tulsa, Oklahoma.  The street value of the Methamphetamine is estimated at nearly $40,000, according to Officer Clark.

The woman was booked into the Grayson County Jail.

Memories of Howe will always be a special part of our lives. From the times we were there working under Coach Fryar, till the special years of leading the Bulldogs as head coach. We remember each special moment, and will hold these memories close to our hearts forever. Howe has a special tradition, and we were proud to be a small part of the years we were there. Our girls were in K and first grade there the first year, and when we returned, they were in 2nd and 3rd grade. They are now 33 and 32, so many years have gone by. Needless to say, we have grown older also, and although we are getting older, and grey hair is setting in, or no hair at all, ha! , our memory of the spirit of the Black and White, will always be at the top of our list of places we have lived. Remember the Bulldog Magic? It was there always in that stadium, and followed us through the playoffs many times!

Along the south part of Howe at Blythe Road and US 75, a master plan is being developed by Tomlin Investments that will create a large amount of new housing for the expected growth to this area over the next few years.

Scott Norris, of Tomlin Investments has been in discussions with the City of Howe for quite some time now and there are a few technical details to work out between engineers and attorneys, but all appears that Howe will soon have their own new housing district in the near future.

The 469 acre plan includes room for a new elementary school, public park, neighborhood pool and other amenities for the home owners.
