57-year-old Howard Maurice Lawson had a domestic incident with his wife, Etrenda Alston, at their Greens Circle Cypress Creek apartment on May 11th. When officers arrived, Alston advised them that she and Lawson argued, during which he pulled out a machete, causing her to fear for her life and call the police. Lawson told officers that he did pull out the machete during the argument, but only to clean it, not to harm “his wife of 30 years of marriage.” Officers asked him where he put the weapon, to which he said he “got rid of it.” Lawson was taken into custody for domestic assault.

DUI: Luke Bippus has four drinks before running stop sign, tells officer “I am too f*cked up”
30-year-old Luke Austin Bippus failed to stop for the Old Dickerson Pike and Dry Creek intersection stop sign on March 4th. Officers observed this and conducted a traffic stop on Hasty Drive. Officers asked for his driver’s credentials and noticed he exhibited numerous signs of intoxication as he admitted to having four alcoholic beverages at his job. Upon request, Bippus exited his vehicle unsteadily, and officers had to lean him against it to prevent him from falling. When asked if he would do sobriety tests, Bippus replied, “No, I am too f*cked up, and I will fail.” Bippus agreed to provide a blood sample and then was taken into custody for driving under the influence.
