Live manhunt in Bandera

[Witchgrass]

Anybody else following this? Over the weekend this guy had burglarized several homes, stealing several vehicles. Yesterday afternoon around 3:00,he was arrested, and cuffed, he jumped out of a moving patrol car and has been hiding out along the river. Have not found him yet. County officers said they spotted him today, but he is still running.

He had stolen several guns from one of the homes that he robbed. Local PD said to assume that by now, he may be armed and dangerous, again. Thankfully I live about 10 miles from town, but I know quite a few that live closer in, that are pretty nervous right now.

What a POS. Hope everyone stays safe!

Good luck on the hunt! On another note...(and please feel more than free to correct any misinterpretation I may have of the story after reading the news link) do these officers need a bit of on the job training? How does this POS escape in cuffs, from a cop car, to escape to the river to be seen again and escape again? Not bashing, just asking if anyone knows.

Not really sure.....It was noted that he was cuffed behind his back, and when the patrol car slowed down to make a turn, he broke out/escaped from the back seat and ran to the river. There have been lots of accusations, and I have been following the updates, mostly on Facebook. Crazy stuff. Am having to lock my vehicle in own driveway for the first time in 20years.

What do you do and where do you run when your hands are handcuffed behind your back? Seems kind of counterproductive.

He must be good with his feet. I wish he'd find his way here. I'd pull a gun on him and force him to take my truck. That thing is a piece of junk.

I've had my back window kicked out more times than I can count. Previous dept didnt want cages on the windows, due to the look.. i know, smh.. but once, i arrested the lovely gentleman and he decided he wanted some fresh air as i was continuing with my investigation.. i come back to car to a kicked out back window and no suspect.. make a LONG story short, he was quickly located and charged..

Latest update. He is believed to have stolen a red Navigator (at 7:30pn)May be heading south. No telling where he is by now.
