Felon Found with Firearm, Others with Drugs and Various Offenses over Holiday Weekend

 

This three-day weekend, many people were held accountable for their various actions, so they had an opportunity to visit the Tom Green County Jail.

In fact, just after 11:00 p.m. on Saturday, Jan. 16, 2016, San Angelo Police conducted a traffic stop on a red 2004 Ford Explorer at Knickerbocker and La Cruz Streets for a traffic violation.

Officers made contact with the female driver who did not present a driver’s license and attempted to disguise her identity by providing false information.  She was later identified as Tiffany Holmes, 40.  Holmes was arrested for Failure to Identify Giving False/Fictitious Information. During a personal search of Holmes, after her arrest, Officers found a substance that field-tested positive for the presence of methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia inside her backpack. She was then additionally charged with First Degree Felony Manufacture Delivery of a Controlled Substance Penalty Group 1. Holmes was issued a verbal warning for her traffic violation.

Holmes’ two male passengers were also arrested during this traffic investigation. Alfredo M. Hernandez, 37, was charged with Unlawful Possession of a Firearm by Felon after officers located a handgun inside his backpack. Javier E. Escobar, 37, was arrested for three outstanding City Warrants.
