Howe woman arrested for stealing a police vehicle

HOWE, Texas – A 21-year-old Howe woman has been booked into the Grayson County Jail on a number of charges for her role in the theft of a marked Howe Police patrol vehicle Friday morning.

At approximately 9:20 a.m., an investigator with the Texas Office of the Attorney General called the Howe Police Department to request assistance with a woman in her care who was experiencing a mental health crisis. The officer went to the Dollar General store on L.B. Kirby Avenue in Howe and met with the investigator who said she was transporting the woman from Howe to an area hospital for evaluation when the woman became combative and delusional.

The officer and a local constable detained the woman and sat her in the rear seat of the officer’s patrol vehicle. The woman was able to maneuver her handcuffs to the front of her body, climb through a narrow window in the partition separating the front and rear seats of the patrol vehicle, and drive away.

She drove north on U.S. Highway 75 and eventually exited onto the east service road of the highway. The vehicle became disabled when the woman ran over a number of curbs which destroyed the four tires on the 2018 Dodge Charger, and it came to a stop on the east service road of the highway several blocks north of FM 1417.

Officers from surrounding agencies responded to the call and detained the woman until Howe officers arrived and arrested her for Escape, Evading Arrest with a Motor Vehicle, and Unauthorized Use of a Vehicle. She was booked into the Grayson County Jail. No other vehicles were damaged during the woman’s flight and she admitted to officers that she had recently used methamphetamine

Howe Officer makes arrests for catalytic converter thefts

HOWE, Texas – Howe Police Sergeant Keith Milks arrested two men and a woman early Sunday morning on a variety of charges related to the theft of catalytic converters.

At approximately 4 a.m., an officer saw a gray 2017 GMC Yukon parked in front of a closed auto repair shop on the service road of U.S. Highway 75 in Van Alstyne. Sergeant Milks spoke with the three occupants and inside the Yukon he found multiple saws, burglary tools, and a catalytic converter which had been removed from a vehicle at a different location.

Milks arrested 23-year-old Tatum Hatcher and brothers Kinneth and Louis McKelroy, 23 and 20, and booked them into the Grayson County Jail on felony theft charges and for possession of burglary tools. Hatcher and Kinneth McKelroy are from White Settlement, Texas, and Louis McKelroy is from Denison.

Louis McKelroy was also booked into the jail for a parole violation warrant stemming from charges related to Assault of a Public Servant, and Kinneth McKelroy was charged with possession of methamphetamine.

Catalytic converters are exhaust emission control devices mounted on vehicles that have become a favorite target of thieves because of their ease of removal as well as their raw scrap value and the presence of trace amounts of precious metals like platinum and rhodium.

In 2021, Texas legislators enacted House Bill 4110 which increased the penalties for the theft of catalytic converters and imposed new regulations on scrapyards which are designed to curb the thefts.

To help deter thieves, the Howe PD recommends people park their vehicles in well-lit areas or inside a garage, install security cameras, and if they see suspicious activity around vehicles, immediately contact 911.

Howe man arrested on narcotics and firearms charges

HOWE, Texas – Howe Police Officers responded to a call of shots fired at a home in the 700 block of North Collins Freeway in Howe Thursday evening and the subsequent investigation landed a 23-year-old Howe man in the Grayson County Jail.

At approximately 9:40 p.m., neighbors called 911 to report multiple shots fired in the Pradera trailer park and upon their arrival, Dylan Kyler Lucas, who did not call 911, told officers he was the victim of a botched robbery concerning a pair of sneakers. Lucas claimed an unknown person fired three shots into the front door of his trailer before fleeing on foot.

Howe Officers Jason Jones, Sergeant Keith Milks, and Chief Carl Hudman interviewed Lucas and the other occupant of the home and recovered a firearm, a quarter ounce of marijuana, and approximately 100 Oxycodone pills which police assert Lucas were selling. There were three children under the age of five in the home.

Lucas, a convicted felon, was arrested for possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute, unlawful possession of a firearm by a felon, and possession of marijuana in a drug-free zone.

The most serious narcotics charge is a first-degree felony and if convicted, Lucas faces between five and 99 years in prison and a $10,000 fine.

No one was hurt in the alleged robbery and the exact cause and nature of the shooting is under investigation.
