The Chron.com Froot Loop Bureau was working the remote hard today, covering TWO television stations!
Three police chases took place early this morning, according to KHOU (Channel 11) and KTRK (Channel 13).
Authorities gave reporters this account: The first chase ended in north Houston just around midnight. The driver tried to evade police by jumping out of the moving car, but was captured after a short foot chase on McKee near Noble.
Police then discovered that the car was stolen.
The second chase occurred in southwest Houston around 1 a.m. Police tried to pull a vehicle over on Bissonnet near Beltway 8 when three men fled the scene. The driver was arrested and another was captured a short time later. A third suspect escaped.
The third chase ended when the suspect crashed into a police cruiser and two other parked cars on Greens Road near Imperial Valley.
The suspect was able to flee the scene and hide at an apartment complex, but was later found and arrested on a felony warrant.
Hearst should spring for a radio for the Chron.com Froot Loop bureau, and they could include rewritten news reports from KTRH-740 and KUHF-88.7 in addition to their television beat!
