Today marks the first-ever game at the brand new Michael Glaspie Field Athletic Complex at Martin High School on the west side of Arlington.

The debut matchup will feature Seguin Cougars vs. The Colony Cougars. Glaspie Field will now serve as the home field for both Seguin and Martin High School, boasting 10,000 seats (5,500 home side / 4,500 visitor side ), a 40-foot visual screen, locker rooms, concessions, restrooms, and one of the largest press boxes in the city for a high school—a major upgrade from Martin’s old 1,500-seat practice field.

On Friday, Martin takes the field for their Homecoming game against Grand Prairie High.

The stadium honors Rev. Michael Glaspie of Mount Olive Baptist Church, who has served Arlington for over 40 years as a community leader, AISD Board Trustee, City Councilman, and mayoral candidate. Rev. Glaspie was the first African American elected to AISD Board of Trustees in 1991 and has advocated for a stadium since then. “Over 300 years we [my family] have taught kids and educated kids… I just happen to be the one they’re honoring, but it’s really for my family,” he said at the groundbreaking in 2023. We enjoyed getting to know more about Rev. Glaspie during our 2021 interview with him during his mayoral campaign.

Funded by the 2019 Bond, Glaspie Field is AISD’s third competition field, joining Cravens at Lamar High School and Wilemon at Sam Houston High School. The $34 million project faced some delays but now stands as a milestone for Arlington athletics.

Will you be heading out to catch a game at Glaspie Field?

A woman was found stabbed to death in her Arlington backyard yesterday.

The Arlington Police Department confirmed in an email sent to AUME that detectives are investigating a homicide following a stabbing in South Arlington.

On Sept. 22, 2025, around 9 a.m., officers responded to a home in the 1000 block of Shortleaf Pine Dr. after a family member found a 53-year-old woman unresponsive and bleeding in the backyard. She had multiple apparent stab wounds and was transported to a hospital, where she was pronounced deceased.

Preliminary findings suggest this was not a random attack, and investigators believe the victim likely knew her killer. No arrests have been made at this time. Detectives continue to follow leads, and the case remains ongoing.

Anyone with information is urged to contact Detective Robinson at (817) 459-5935 or leave an anonymous tip with Crime Stoppers of Tarrant County at (817) 469-8477. The Tarrant County Medical Examiner’s Office will release the victim’s name.

The City of Arlington just made its final $22.6 million payment on AT&T Stadium, wiping out the debt nearly a decade ahead of schedule saving taxpayers over $150 million in interest and fees.

With the stadium officially debt-free, the same revenue sources Arlington voters agreed on in 2004 that helped pay it off—a half-cent sales tax increase, 2% hotel occupancy tax and 5% rental car tax—will now support Globe Life Field which was approved by Arlington voters in a 2017 vote. These funding sources from Arlington residents and the 16 million+ annual visit generate about $55 million a year.

“This iconic AT&T Stadium has hosted an impressive list of events in its first 16 years, and we look forward to even more record-setting concerts and games in our future,” said Mayor Jim Ross.

AT&T stadium has hosted many events throughout its history from the unforgettable snowy Super Bowl, Beyoncé’s 2023 Renaissance Concert, Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour, and even Kendrick Lamar & SZA’s Grand Nationals Tour earlier this year. AT&T is preparing for the upcoming 2026 FIFA World Cup, which will continue to put Arlington on the global stage.

What should we bring to the city next?

Billion dollar companies and law enforcement can track the average citizen for advertisement dollars and petty crimes but can’t get a clue on numerous disappearance? As everyone continues to worry about bullsh*t Tik-Tok trends and things that don’t matter, someone is looking to sn**ch young girls and young women in our very own community. Something about this needs to be done ASAP, until then, men let’s do better at protecting the women in the community until and law enforcement figure it out. - TEAM AUME

On this day 10 years ago in Arlington, unarmed 19 year-old Christian Taylor was murdered by rookie Arlington PD Officer Brad Miller.

Taylor, who was a Mansfield Summit graduate and student athlete at Angelo State University, was shot by Miller four times at the Classic Buick GMC dealership on August 7th, 2015.

The shooting caught nationwide attention and the officer was also fired from the force but was never indicted after Tarrant County jurors found his actions to be "lawful".

Former Arlington Police Chief Will Johnson reported that Miller failed to communicate with other officers and disobeyed many other police protocols that resulted in Taylor's tragic death. Chief Johnson also reported that the officer exercised poor judgement in the fatal shooting.

No physical contact was EVER made between Taylor and Officer Brad Miller, not to mention the fact that Taylor was unarmed. The investigation also detailed that Officer Brad Miller was never in any life-threatening danger during the interaction with Taylor.

Despite all of the facts mentioned above, Tarrant County Courts Grand Jury still decided NOT to indict Officer Miller and he walks free till this day. Tarrant County District Attorney Sharon Wilson also spoke out agreeing with the decision saying, "We respect the grand jurors' decision and appreciate the time they have committed to serve the citizens of our country."

Disgusting. RIP to Christian Taylor and our hearts are forever with him and the entire Taylor family.

Arlington, TX man Randolph Lewis, 33, has been arrested in Southfield, MI on multiple charges including human trafficking, prostitution, using a computer to commit a crime, and criminal sexual conduct, according to WXYZ out of Detroit.

Southfield Police say Lewis trafficked women some as young as 17, across several states. His arrest came after a 21-year-old woman from Louisiana told police he broke her windshield during a dispute at a Quality Inn on Telegraph Rd. on July 21. She later revealed signs of trafficking and said she’d been transported by Lewis between Texas and Louisiana twice a month for the past year.

Before arriving in Michigan, Lewis and victims reportedly stayed in St. Louis and Chicago. The woman also said they fled Texas after another victim called police. She added Lewis assaulted her repeatedly and took her earnings.

Police found he had rented three rooms at the hotel but fled before officers arrived. With help from the Oakland County Human Trafficking Task Force, he was later taken into custody. Authorities say there may be 10 other victims, though only one other has been contacted—and that person refused to cooperate.

After his arrest, Lewis attempted to cause self-harm by banging his head in his hell. Police also released the jail footage showing Lewis harming himself.
