Apparent fight turns into
arrest on drug charges
A domestic disturbance led
to a drug-related arrest of a Den-
ton woman Tuesday night.
Denton officers were sent to
investigate a disturbance where,
during the call, it appeared a
man was about to fight a worn-
less than 200 grams of metham-
phetamine, along with para-
phernalia used to weigh, pack-
age and sell the controlled sub-
stance.
The 41-year-old woman was
arrested without incident.
Office dispatchers handled 794
service and officer-initiated calls
for the agencies they serve, and
54 people were booked into
Denton County Jail.
■ Denton police handled 241
service and officer-initiated calls
— A man called Denton police
to a location in the 200 block of
Dallas Drive, and he reported
being robbed moments before
on Ruth Street.
He said suspects demanded
money from him, and when he
said he did not have any, he was
punched in the face and struck
in the head with an unknown
object.
The man was transported to
the hospital by the Denton Fire
Department and was met by in-
vestigators there.

said police found no signs of any
gunshots.

When officers arrived, the
man was called outside the

the woman started making sus-

the residence. It was later deter-

were prior to the flood events of
this spring,” said Murphy.
The Corps still is trying to get
a price estimate on the damage,
but as Murphy counted up some
spots at a park Wednesday, it
was clear the number will be in
the millions, money which he
said will have to come from their
general funds as they have it
available.
For now, he asks visitors to
the parks to obey the closure
signs and be patient as they
work to get these areas back to
normal.
“Everything you see in this
section was under about 20 feet
of water,” said Murphy looking
at a wrecked picnic area his crew
hasn’t gotten to yet.
The situation is similar at
other lakes like Lewisville Lake,
where Westlake Park in Hickory
Creek never opened its gates to
the public this year; only to re-
pair crews going in to slowly fix
the mess inside.
Murphy said he and others
from the Army Corps of Engi-
neers likely will have to work
through the offseason on many
areas, and some still won’t be
close to 100 percent repaired.
“Long term, it’ll be years be-

For months, volunteers have
worked to fix them, but it could
take years more before some ar-
eas around many North Texas
lakes are repaired completely
from record spring flooding.
On Wednesday, Grapevine
Lake manager James Murphy
continued to assess the damage
in one Flower Mound park
where several areas remain
closed to the public.
Inside, roads are crumbling
in spots, campsites and tables sit
tom to pieces, and decades-old
trees may not survive the winter
after being submerged in water
for weeks to months.

Dallas say.
The Austin Ameriean-
Statesman reports that the re-
searchers are leading the initial
six-month trials, which start
next month.
The project seeks to provide
enhanced access to physical
therapy for disabled veterans
who can’t commute to the doc-

It combines recent advances
in 3-D cameras, high-speed
Internet connections, video
game engines and the field of
“haptic,” or sense-of-touch, tech-
nology, which uses a variety of
vibrations, tactile sensors and
the application of force to the us-
