An Andrews resident who had a significant role in the beginning of the space age in the late 1940s and 1950s is set to celebrate a milestone birthday next week.
A recent theft of a pickup, welder and trailer from a county precinct yard resulted in the commissioners court on Tuesday issuing an order that grants an emergency budget amendment to replace the stolen equipment and add increased security measures.
An Andrews man arrested early last April for hurling homemade Molotov cocktails at a residence occupied by a person he’d argued with on social media was recently sentenced in 109th District Court, according to district clerk’s office records.
