Jessop jury selection

Jury selection began Monday at the Coke County Courthouse in Robert Lee for the trial of a former FLDS leader. Frederick Merril Jessop is accused of conducting an unlawful marriage between Warren Jeffs and Jessop's then 12-year-old daughter. He faces a possible 10-year prison sentence. Some 300 jury summons were issued to Coke County residents.


Collision on North Chadbourne

A collision on North Chadbourne at 33rd Street Monday left two people in the hospital with non life-threatening injuries. They were the driver and passenger in a whie Chevy sedan hit by a San Angelo woman driving a pickup truck. The pickup driver was cited for failing to yield the right of way.


Smoke to the east

You might have noticed a large white plume of smoke east of San Angelo Monday as many residents did. But it was not from a wildfire--it was from a controlled burn designed to get rid of debris in a plowed field outside Loop 306 near Eola. The land owner notified the Tom Green County Sheriff's Office of the burn.



Most Wanted captured

A fugitive featured this week as San Angelo's Most Wanted has already been captured. 30-year-old Jason Dale Whitlock was wanted on a parole violation warrant on a drug charge and a Tom Green County warrant for evading arrest. Whitlock was arrested Monday following an investigation by the U.S. Marshal Service with help from San Angelo Police and Homeland Security.
