Evading and Tampering w/Evidence
On 2/23/25 evening shift deputies with Constable Jerry Garcia’s office were dispatched to the 8500 block S Sam Houston Pkwy E for a Theft in progress. Upon deputies arrival they were advised that a suspicious vehicle was parked near the FIRE EXIT, possible waiting on the two suspects, who were inside the business concealing items in a duffel bag. At this time both suspects were observed exiting the business, and running towards the suspicious vehicle. Upon the two suspects entering the vehicle with stolen merchandise concealed in said duffle bag, the vehicle attempted to flee the parking lot. Deputies quickly located the vehicle and performed a traffic stop, at which time they were able to safely detain all three suspects without incident. The Harris County DA was contacted, and charges were accepted on the following suspects: Christina Melton, 34 years of age- Misdemeanor Aggregate Theft, Robert Bolden, 54 years of age- Felony Aggregate Theft, and Howard Jones, 56 years of age- Misdemeanor Theft.
Please stay safe and God bless.
