Preston Chenier, 46, was arrested earlier this week in Louisiana and awaits extradition to Galveston County, where he will be charged with aggravated sexual assault, according to Det. Matthew Cypert of the La Marque Police Department.
More than two decades later, La Marque police have identified a suspect in a 1999 cold case involving aggravated kidnapping, sexual assault, and robbery.
A woman died and four others, including children, were critically hurt after a car fell off a bridge on I-45 in La Marque late Monday night, officials said.
One person died and four others were seriously injured when a vehicle crashed in the southbound mainlanes of the I-45 Gulf Freeway near FM 1765 and fell from the bridge.
