A man is behind bars after authorities said he attempted to steal a man's vehicle, and when it didn't start, forced the victim — at gunpoint — to steal a second vehicle.
Jorden Tyler Meadows was arrested and charged with aggravated robbery, aggravated kidnapping and burglary of a vehicle on Saturday, Sept. 21 after authorities said he pointed his firearm at a man, who was staying at a hotel after Imelda floodwaters damaged his home, and attempted to steal the flood victim's car.

While the law specifies the manner in which the flag is to be treated, there is no official penalty. Furthermore, the Supreme Court has ruled that defacing the flag is a form of free speech protected by the First Amendment in two cases. These two cases did not strike down Title 4, Chapter 1, but they did rule against the constitutionality of local and state flag protection laws. Why is protecting the flag important?

Without a doubt, the faster you can get proper trauma care to any injured victim, the greater their chances of surviving the injury. Equally assured, the large majority of emergency calls will see a law enforcement officer on scene before members of the fire department or emergency medical system (EMS) personnel arrive.

Its last report indicated that 43% of law enforcement agencies nationwide use NIBRS to report on their jurisdiction's crime data. Additionally, thousands of more agencies have since committed to making the NIBRS transition. And for good reason. A primary benefit of moving to NIBRS is that agencies will be able to dive deeper into crime data for a greater, more efficient use of resources.
