Stolen ATV, bike returned to owner
One suspect was apprehended, and two others identified after stealing an all-terrain vehicle and bicycle Friday, April 26, in Navasota.
Navasota police responded to reports of the stolen ATV and bicycle at 6:30 p.m. Friday in the 1100 block of Foster Street.
According to a report from Navasota Police Chief Shawn Myatt, officers observed the ATV being driven by two black males at 7 p.m.
Officers attempted to initiate a traffic stop but the ATV evaded officers down several streets and eventually into a wooded area behind the Navasota Veterans of Foreign Wars Hall. Officers entered the woods and located the ATV which was confirmed to be stolen.
At approximately 7:30 p.m. officers spotted a black male subject riding the stolen bicycle. Officers attempted a traffic stop but the suspect evaded officers by traveling down Blues Alley.
Officers eventually apprehended the suspect identified as Tyreik Haynes, 17, from Plantersville.
The suspects who eluded officers have been identified as juveniles and Myatt said warrants will be issued soon.
Both the ATV and bicycle have been returned to its owner.
