Sept. 21Shoplifter, 4800 block of North St. Police were

dispatched to a shoplifting report where they found two people who’d stolen from a store. One person had a parole warrant and prior theft convictions and the other lied about her identity to police. The other also had a parole warrant and drivers licenses and credit cards belonging to two other people, and had a prior theft conviction. All in all, a pretty unsuccessful shopping trip for the pair, who didn’t bring home the (pilfered) bacon that night.

Assist complainant, 200 block of CR 227. A resident was concerned about a post on the social media app TikTok. Nothing in the video constituted a crime, as far as deputies were concerned.

Welfare check, CR 313. A mother contacted deputies for a welfare check on her children “due to corporal punishment administered by their father.” She was referred “to the proper agency.”

Burglary of a coin operated machine, 8th Street and Cypress Ave. Someone broke into an ice vending machine in Cushing. Law enforcement was looking for a suspect with a frosty beverage or well-stocked cooler, presumably.

Sept. 22Assault, 1200 block of W. Cox St. A woman saved her

boyfriend some trouble when she called the police on herself, despite her filing an assault complaint. “It was found that the caller had actually assaulted her live-in boyfriend and he had left the scene and was unable to be located.”

Found property, 4900 block of North St. Law enforcement was dispatched when a resident found a loaded firearm magazine outside a business. While a deputy was en route, the owner arrived and collected the item. With the price of ammunition these days, recovering the magazine was as good as finding cash on the street.

Unauthorized use of a motor vehicle, 200 block of CR 805. A woman called the law on her boyfriend because he didn’t return her vehicle after she loaned it to him. An attempt-to-locate order was issued to patrolling law enforcement, but the vehicle wasn’t found.

Sept. 23Deadly conduct, 1000 block of Oak Hill Plaza Dr. Several

shots were fired from the road into an apartment building.Assist complainant, 6000 block of FM 1275. “The

complainant stated that her son and his dad picked up a political sign out of a yard.” The sign was returned.

ARRESTSBetween Sept. 21 and Sept. 23, 26 people were arrested.

They were: David Joshua Collins, 32, parole warrant hold and theft of property; Samantha Juanita McBride, 21, possession of a dangerous drug; Julie Lynnette McMahon,

Ron Paul hospitalized, says he’s OK

AUSTIN — Former GOP presidential candidate Ron Paul posted a picture of himself in a hospital Friday but said he was OK after video circulated online of him struggling to speak during an interview.

The 85-year-old former Texas congressman, who ran for presi-dent three times, posted a picture on Facebook showing him smiling in a hospital gown and giving a thumbs-up. “I am doing fine. Thank you for your concern,” he said.

The post came after a video took off on social media showing Paul having trouble speaking during an appearance on his livestreamed show “Ron Paul Liberty Report.” The video cuts away to the inter-viewer as Paul struggles.

Hacked provider acknowledges ransomware attack

DALLAS (AP) — A major U.S. provider of software services to state and local governments acknowledged Friday that it was hit by a ransomware at-

tack two days after telling clients an unknown intruder had compromised its phone and information technolo-gy systems.

Tyler Technologies said in a statement that it confirmed the intruder used ransomware but did not provide further details on its response, citing an ongoing investigation. A spokesperson for the Dallas-area company did not directly answer a question about whether it paid to have its systems unlocked.

Ransomware purveyors are in-creasingly breaking into company and government networks and siphoning out valuable data before scrambling them and demanding payouts. They threaten to make the stolen data public if the victim doesn’t pay up.

Tyler, which is a publicly traded S&P 500 company, in-formed clients across the coun-try Wednesday about the data breach, but said the impact ap-peared limited and that there was no reason to believe its custom-ers were affected. The company said it brought in outside infor-mation technology experts and informed law enforcement.

Pair charged for plot to attack White House, Trump Tower

SAN ANTONIO (AP) — Federal authorities have arrested two men on terror charges for allegedly plotting to bomb or shoot up sites including the White House and Trump Tower in New York City in attacks inspired by the Islamic State group.

Jaylyn Christopher Molina, of Texas, and Kristopher Sean Matthews, of South Carolina, are both charged with conspiracy to provide material support to a designated foreign terrorist orga-nization. They were arrested in different states last week.

The pair had discussed traveling to Syria to fight with the Islamic State group or carrying out attacks at Trump Tower, the White House, the New York Stock Exchange or the headquarters of federal law enforcement agencies, according to court records unsealed this week.

They were allegedly studying how to build car bombs, suicide belts and other explosives and discussed plans for attacks with other people over an encrypted messaging application.

Memorial improves interest rate

Nacogdoches Memorial Hospital will be getting a better financing deal on two ambulances and two patient transport vans.

In August, the board approved a purchase of the vehicles valued around $400,000, but asked Chief Financial Officer Rhonda McCabe to try to find better financing than the 9.9% interest being offered.

“I reached out to Pros-perity Bank in Tyler and they agreed to do a loan for us for 60 months at a rate of 3.45%,” McCabe told the board this week.

The hospital board also renewed agreements with Cerner, Seimans and Nu-ance for document manage-ment software and other technology.

Final listening sessions scheduled

The group known for holding focus groups and community cafes through-out the county over the past two years is planning to share results and hear more input through a series of Zoom meetings.

Better Together, formerly known as the Nacogdoches County Community Collab-orative, invites the public a community listening session held by videocon-ference.

The final two sessions are planned from 5:30-7 p.m. on Oct. 7 and 2:30-4 p.m. on Oct. 16.

Registration is available via the Better Together Facebook page, or by contacting Steve Cooper at scooper@sfa.edu or 468-2845 or Julia Cañas at julia.canas@sfasu.edu or 468-2228.
