Despite hot weather, December is really here and it’s time for the annual Christmas on the Square in Rocksprings this Saturday, December 11th. Festivities begin at 12 noon. Just some of the attractions include vendors, arts and crafts, pictures with Santa, a hot chocolate bar, an ugly Christmas sweater contest and our second Christmas Parade.
Phillip Drake
Phillip Drake sold cattle that weren’t his to collect more than $500,000; some still missing.
It’s still early in the season, but it’s good to see our Lady Angoras with coaches Allison Burleson and Jon Elliott listed in the top 25.
Law enforcement took custody of five illegals that bailed out on the east side of town last Tuesday week. The driver attacked a woman and is still at large.
Holiday preparations around the community were abruptly halted on the afternoon of Tuesday, November 23, when yet another high-speed chase and bailout occurred in town. At approximately 3:30 p.m. DPS attempted a vehicle stop on a white Ford Expedition on HWY 377 south of Rocksprings. The vehicle failed to yield and a pursuit ensued north through Rocksprings on HWY 377. In an effort to evade responding law enforcement, the vehicle doubled back south into Rocksprings. Drivers traveling in both directions were run off the road, with several narrowly avoiding collision with the Expedition and other vehicles.
