Now the Sheriff of Runnels County, Carl Squyres, claims he is fed up and has asked help from the Texas Rangers. 

"I really don't want to discuss that much but we have contacted the Texas Rangers and other agencies," said Squyres to KTXS. "There's a lot of things we can't put out there in the public because it would get back to the suspects."

The sheriff claims that he already has several people who are suspects in the crime spree. He believes that this is one large group working together. 

"We have questioned people. I don't want to call them suspects because they are people of interest. There are several of them," said Squyres. "I believe this is a group of people. It's not just one person and they are connected."
