Not to induce panic or anything, but if you plan on needing an alcoholic beverage of choice on Christmas weekend in Arkansas, you better plan ahead. We will take a look at New Year's Eve and Day too.
Your Bowie County Sheriff's Department sends us the list each week but here is a sobering thought, you know who is getting that list each week as well. The first full week of December brought us 55 arrests. Of which, Bowie County Deputies made 25 arrests, and the remaining 30 were made by other law enforcement agencies and turned over to Bowie County.
The weekend is here and so is Texarkana's 150 birthday, tonight the Sesqecentineal celebration continues downtown with the Post Office Lighting, Time Capsul ceremony and then it's live performances at the Perot Theatre featuring the Texarkana Symphony Orchestra and much more. Read all about it here. If you're looking for other live music, here we go with Texarkana's Live Music Scene.
Your Bowie County Sheriff's Department did more than just arrest people and serve warrants last week, on Saturday, December 2, they, along with the New Boston Police Department, New Boston Fire Fighters, and Texas Department of Public Safety Troopers all participated in the New Boston-area Shop with a First Responder event at the New Boston Walmart. Our thanks to Paula Cole, wife of Bowie County Sheriff Deputy Curtis Cole and unofficial photographer for the BCSO for the use of the pictures from the event.
