It was apparently two juveniles so the news wont release the age, sex, race. We can assume base on who actually goes to Deerbrook mall anymore.

Reason Humble PD has a jail in that place.

Does willowbook and memorial still not allow in people under 18 without an adult?

Investigators determined Alqaq traveled to the Chicago area by bus on his own. Authorities said no foul play is suspected. His reason for leaving Houston remains unclear.

Alqaq was reported missing after leaving his dormitory around in the early-morning hours Sunday, just hours after arriving on campus. Investigators said his suitemate reported that he packed his belongings and said he was going to explore the area.

Police noted Alqaq is mobile despite having cerebral palsy, speaks only Arabic and appeared to have his cellphone turned off during the search.

anyone else find this story strange?

Lost my bet with the wife, I thought Alqaq would be found in the local bayou.

How the hell did he end up in Chicago? Math is not mathing.

How is he going to succeed at Rice only speaking Arabic?

world cup?

anyone who has spent time in grad school in a STEM discipline doesn't think twice about a dude who can't speak english.

I used to joke that I majored in engineering and minored in bad English. When I worked for a small company, the sales guys always put me on the phone to translate for them anytime they had to deal with an english as a second language customer.

Isn't it hard to be a university student in America if you don't speak English? Or am I just old and uneducated?

We had TA's at A&M who didn't speak English in the late 90's (in non-STEM classes too). I can't imagine what it's like in 2026.

You must be really Old Army if the Ho Chi Minh trail was not yet established through the Engineering corridor during your time.

The bathrooms in Zachary smelled like rice pee all the way back in the late 80s. I am sure that hasn't gotten much better.

Apparently took a bus. When he left his teammates after checking in at Rice he told them he was "going for a walk."

A guy goes out for a stroll at midnight, is in a town he's unfamiliar with and doesn't speak English. Oh, and did I mention he has cerebral palsy?

Odd all the way around.

Odd is one word for it. Still trying to figure the math out.

Houston rapper NFL Cartel Bo identified as suspect in kidnapping case at Cypress home

CYPRESS, Texas Houston rapper Warren Brown, known as NFL Cartel Bo, is facing an aggravated kidnapping charge after a welfare check at a northwest Harris County home led deputies to evidence that a woman had been held captive and later escaped, court records and law-enforcement officials said.

Harris County Precinct 4 Constable Mark Herman said deputies responded Sunday to the 15000 block of Darby Retreat Lane after receiving a request for a welfare check. When deputies arrived, they found evidence indicating someone had been held captive inside the home and had escaped. Investigators later located the woman nearby and took her to a hospital for treatment, Herman said.

According to charging documents, Brown abducted the woman on July 21 and held her in a locked closet. The documents allege Brown sexually assaulted the woman, checked on her hourly and refused to let her leave. After Brown left the Cypress home, he was pulled over and arrested July 25 on a charge of aggravated assault of a family member, records show.

They recently gutted and modified the entire building. Looked like a palace inside. But, you may be right. It probably didn't take long to get it's stank back.

You can tell that neighborhood is a ****hole because no one has a pool

Gotta have a yard first to have a pool. Jesus, my front yard is bigger than those peoples front and back yards put together.

Even the yards that could fit them don't have one. Only the cheapest burbs out there don't have pools in at least the corner lots.

How poor are these people?

I live in a typical middle class neighborhood and at least every other home has some sort of pool. One neighbor put an above ground in their front yard. Bold strategy, but hey you do you.
