Felony Arrests In Nacogdoches County Aug 2 – Aug 8

In Nacogdoches, there were only six inmates arrested during today's sweep of people arrested for felony charges over the past 7 days. Though few, the additions to the Nacogdoches County Jail committed heinous crimes.

Four of the felony bookings happened today and include suspects from a shooting that occurred on July 30, 2024. Nacogdoches PD believes it has the highest number of suspects involved in an NPD murder investigation.

Seven suspects in total were arrested for a THC vape pen drug deal gone bad. Four of the seven arrested are back behind bars.
