🚨 JUGGING INVESTIGATION LEADS TO FOUR ARRESTS IN TEXAS The Austin County Sheriff’s Office says an investigation into suspected “jugging” crimes led to four arrests and uncovered connections to other theft cases across Texas. Investigators say they were monitoring a vehicle linked to a Houston-area crew suspected of jugging and catalytic converter thefts. Authorities followed the group to the New Braunfels area before the vehicle was stopped on I-10 near the Colorado/Austin County line. According to the sheriff’s office, investigators determined the suspects were connected to an open Best Buy theft investigation in Pflugerville and had allegedly just left a smash-and-grab theft at a New Braunfels Best Buy involving nearly $8,000 in merchandise. Three suspects, Jayden Devon Actkins, Fredrick Cortez Graham and Christopher Michael Gordon, were arrested on organized crime charges. A fourth suspect, a juvenile, was also taken into custody. Additional theft charges are pending, and authorities say the investigation remains ongoing. ⚠️ Jugging is when criminals watch or follow someone leaving a bank or business and then steal cash or valuables from the person or their vehicle.

A man fatally shot by police officers in northeast Austin early Friday morning may have been trying to commit suicide-by-police, according to the department. FULL STORY ⬇️
