Last Friday, Tyler, Texas Police shared posts on their Facebook page regarding two alleged thefts and an alleged vehicle hit-and-run incident that occurred.

We tell each other this all the time, but it bears repeating. Please keep an even closer eye on your vehicle and purchases this time of year. Obviously sometimes, despite our best efforts, people with less than virtuous intentions do things that we can't always control. Thankfully, our East Texas authorities have our backs.

That being said, last Friday, Tyler Police shared details regarding three alleged crimes that took place in the recent past in the Tyler, TX area. Let's take a look at a few of those now.
