John Robert McComb, wanted by Liberty County as a person of interest for multiple burglaries was captured Friday night on FM 1010 near the Cleveland City limits. Last week as deputies attempted to capture him he fled south on FM 1010 from Plum Grove until he came to a wildfire scene in which fire trucks were blocking the road. He fled into the woods toward the firefighters and the fire and vanished.
MCPR was created in 2008 after Jamie left a newspaper that conflicted with her ethics. Initially, it was blog style website where Jamie wrote stories and posted them with photos. Scott provided video, and as the blog grew in popularity, businesses began to inquire about advertising. The blog soon transitioned to a news website, and then to a print newspaper, which was sold in over 100 stores, and through subscription for several years.
Scott Engle and Jamie Nash are Montgomery County residents and veteran law enforcement / breaking news reporters, who met covering a law enforcement story and have covered multiple counties, with Scott as a television videographer for multiple local stations and national networks, and Jamie as newspaper / magazine / online reporter.
