As deputies arrived on scene, the driver of the Cadillac fled and refused to stop, leading deputies on a pursuit. The chase began on Hidden Leaf Drive and ended at the intersection of Wallisville Road and Sheldon Road.

The driver was identified as Ivan Lopez Macias. The Harris County District Attorney’s Office was contacted and accepted charges for Evading Arrest/Detention.

On January 8, 2026, at approximately 7:40 p.m., two deputies from Harris County Precinct 6 responded to a disturbance call at 5900 Canal Street after a Precinct 6 dispatcher observed suspicious activity in the parking lot.

Dispatch advised deputies that a female was seen hiding behind vehicles while two male suspects fled the scene on foot.

It was later revealed that the woman had driven to the Precinct 6 substation seeking help and was hiding after one of the male suspects allegedly pointed a firearm at her and threatened to kill her.

🚔Deputies quickly located and detained both suspects without incident.

During the investigation, deputies recovered:

Two firearms🔫 🔫

Approximately 90 grams of co***ne

Approximately 6.64 grams of methamphetamine

30 alprazolam pills

Scales and glass pipes

Suspect Christopher Tull (pictured first) was charged with Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon.

Suspect Joe Chavez (pictured second) was charged with Possession of a Controlled Substance (Methamphetamine) and Possession of a Controlled Substance (Co***ne).

Both suspects were transported and booked into the Harris County Jail.

💔 A woman who could’ve been seriously harmed is now safe thanks to her smart thinking of getting to a police substation and thanks to the dispatcher for being alert and also quick thinking. 👏🙏

📢70-YEAR-OLD REGISTERED S*X OFFENDER ACCUSED OF HARBORING RUNAWAY IN SOUTHEAST HOUSTON📢

Southeast Houston — Deputies with Harris County Precinct 2 arrested a 70-year-old registered s*x offender Thursday after an anonymous tip led them to a residence near Hobby Airport where an underage runaway was reportedly staying.

According to authorities, deputies received a tip through the Precinct 2 website regarding a registered s*x offender allegedly living alone with an underage male at a home in the 8200 block of Broadway Street.

Deputies made contact at the residence and identified the man as Michael Williams, 70, who was confirmed to be a registered s*x offender. Williams told deputies that a 17-year-old male was staying at the home.

The juvenile’s information was entered into the National Crime Information Center (NCIC), where he was confirmed to be a missing juvenile listed through the Department of Child Protective Services (CPS).

After reviewing the case, the Harris County District Attorney’s Office accepted charges of Harboring a Runaway against Williams.

He was taken into custody and transported to the Harris County Jail without incident.

What started HTX Breaking News?

Before HTX Breaking News was called ‘HTX Breaking News’, it was originally called ‘East Houston Breaking News. We orignally created this page for the East Houston area, until we got many requests to cover the entire Houston area. After creating other pages for the different sides of Houston, we then got one request to cover the entire Harris County area and some surrounding counties. Long story short, HTX Breaking News was created. HTX Breaking News originally stands for (Houston, Texas Breaking News) but, we prefer for it to stand for (Harris Texas Breaking News).

I am Brandon, the creator and editor of HTX Breaking News. I love doing things for my community, Denver Harbor, but I also love doing things for my WHOLE community, Houston, Texas. My wish, and goal, is to get as many visitors to the entire Harris County as possible. I hope to start live streaming HTX Breaking News soon.

I love photography, it is one of my main hobbies. I might be starting on an iPhone but you will soon, hopefully, see my work on your television. I plan on becoming a photographer, or a reporter, for my local news stations, KTRK (ABC13), KRIV(FOX26), KHOU(11), or KPRC(2). I do not get paid doing this but I do hope to start soon. I would love to get a camera/camcorder and computer to do some editing. Journalism may sound like an easy job but it really takes a lot of time and energy. I rely on other news stations, law enforcement agencies, and my community to give me information and photos of scenes/events. I do enjoy doing this though. I love meeting new people too and I am hoping to meet you one day.

Lastly, and most importantly, I would like to thank all of my supporters for helping my dream come true as a journalist and photographer. THANK YOU ALL!
