Just like mail carriers who aren't stopped by snow, rain, heat, or gloom of the night, neither are criminals. Criminals will strike at any time and since it's hot outside some are opting to strike from the comfort of their air-conditioned home from behind a keyboard.

Others are dealing, manufacturing, or using illegal drugs, choosing to drink too much alcohol, and getting behind the wheel of an automobile, along with those that take part in organized crimes, crime is non-stop. Because of that Gregg County, Texas law enforcement is always on the lookout for those who choose not to play by the established rules.
