As Anti-Police Threat Grows, Breaks Sabotaged on Texas Patrolman’s Squad Car

CRUISER SABOTAGED, SHOTS FIRED AT OFFICERS RAISE ADDITIONAL CONCERNS (KTRK)

HOUSTON (KTRK) -- Law enforcement officers across our area are being warned to watch out after a patrol car was sabotaged and two officers were shot at in two separate incidents. 

On this busy New Year's Eve, personal safety has been emphasized as much as public safety.

The Harris County Precinct 7 Constable's Office confirmed one of its cars was sabotaged. The attack was on a sergeant's take-home marked unit. He noticed a warning light and when he took it in for repair, a county technician discovered someone had intentionally cut the car's anti-lock braking system. Left undetected in an emergency, it could have been disastrous. An investigation is underway.
