Catch 191: Byron Q. Brown

October 19, 2009 - Leave a Response

South Houston police said Byron Q. Brown, 37, was charged with two counts of aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon. He remains jailed on a $240,000 bond.

Investigators said Brown hit three stores in South Houston in broad daylight from Sept. 16 to Oct. 2, and he may be connected to as many as 13 in the Houston area.

Police say Brown is the same man who appeared as the “Hobby Shell” Robber on the Wheel of Justice on 9/9/09.

HPD Robbery South tells me Brown was nabbed after a reliable Houston Crimestoppers tip.

He was dubbed the “Big Man” Robber by investigators… because of his size.

Police say he robbed Houston area:

CVS Stores, Walgreen’s, HEBs, and Shipley’s Donuts.

 He’s held without bond on three counts of aggravated robbery (as of 10/6/09)

Fester has not been convicted of these crimes, only charged.

I have just finished tallying the money we raised at the first-ever “Wheels for Justice” Motorcycle Rally. (See earlier post)

Drum Role please… One Dollar.

Sent in by loyal (but not local) viewer, Laurie C.

She also sent along a great card. Thanks, L.C.

Laurie has a good sense of humor… because you’ll notice in the earlier post this wasn’t much of a rally. 

(Do not send me money.)

Her daughter, Bianca Lozano, has been missing for 14 years…

Dena Hebert never has a day where she doesn’t think about her.

She’s searching the world for her through cyberspace… and her webpage is heartbreaking.

Patrol Car: Tight Fit

Maybe you have been arrested… maybe you haven’t.

For those, who have not been in the back of a police cruiser… it’s no Sheraton.

With “the cage”… the accommodations are tight. There is no leg room.

There are bars everywhere. 

You have no control over ventilation. During Houston summers, it is hot!

Not a good scene. It’s just you in the back of a 2005 Crown Vic (police interceptor)… on the way to a place that is even less pleasant.

Note: Reporter is not under arrest… merely demonstrating what it will be like when you are under arrest.

1st Annual “Wheels for Justice” Ride…

September 14, 2009 - 2 Responses

I am happy to report that the first annual “Wheels for Justice” Motorcycle Ride was a huge hit.

We didn’t raise any money… only rode about a mile… and just me and my buddy, Cameron, participated… but we had a blast.

He has a Harley… I have a much more manly Honda Scooter.

Note: Never ride in shorts. Never Ride without a helmet. Never ride without shoes.

Eloped or Crime Victim?

She used to call her kids 4 to 5 times a day… but for the last month: Nothing.

Family members think her disappearance may have something to do with her new boyfriend… who was already wanted out of Hill County.

This story will run at 10pm Tuesday. Afterwards, the video will be available here, under “Wanted” heading: Shawn Adams
