Sheriff reports marijuana, pursuit arrests

FALLS CITY – The Richardson County Sheriff’s Office reports a marijuana arrest following an Aug. 5 traffic stop.

Wendell Johnson III of Kennedale, Texas, is suspected of possession about two pounds of marijuana and a stolen firearm.

The sheriff’s office also reports a pursuit July 29 involving Joshua Bachman, who was arrested on Aug. 4.

A sheriff’s office press release says the pursuit was terminated due to Bachman’s disregard for persons and property.

He is suspected of flight to avoid arrest, obstructing a peace officer and criminal mischief.

The press release says the allegations are not related to a pursuit on Aug. 4.
