A suspect wanted on warrants out of Tarrant County was shot while trying to take a Lufkin Police Officer's gun during a struggle Monday night. He is expected to recover, and now faces additional charges.
The City of Tyler is giving offenders a chance to take care of their unresolved warrants before facing jail time. In a program called the "Second Chance Warrant Program", the Tyler Municipal Court is offering the chance to work out a payment schedule to get the fine paid off.
