Mary Jane Farmer for the Van Alstyne News / Scene In Town, from information provided by Van Alstyne Police.

Van Alstyne Police Sgt. Steven Hayslip reported that between Nov. 15 and Nov. 21, police received 179 calls for services. These resulted in 10 police reports, five offense reports, one motor vehicle crash with no injuries, and two arrests. Names of those arrested will not be released until/unless they are indicted.

Nov. 17 arrest — About 4:35 p.m., officers were sent to an unnamed location because of a fight in progress. The caller told them two brothers were the ones involved. Upon arrival, Hayslip said, police officers broke the fight up. After that, they jailed one brother, a Van Alstyne resident, on a charge of assault causing bodily injury-family violence.

Grayson County Jail records show that the suspect served two days in jail before posting his bail of $2,500 in a surety bond and freed on Nov. 19.

Nov. 18 arrest — Officers were sent to a convenience store at U.S. Hwy 75 and West Van Alstyne Parkway because of customer causing a disturbance. They found the suspect, a Van Alstyne man, across the street at another service station. Upon making contact with the suspect, the officers smelled a strong odor of alcohol on his breath, Hayslip said. And during their time there with him, they determined he was a danger to himself and/or others. Subsequently, they jailed the suspect on a charge of public intoxication.

A magistrate gave the suspect a $292 cash fine for the offense, which he sat out, according to jail records, and was released the following day.

A Grayson County Jail spokesperson said the state has set sit-out time at $150 per day of incarceration.
