“Calls for service hit an impressive low over the weekend with only 80 calls for service being answered by Paris police officers,” stated Police Chief Bob Hundley this morning. ”That low activity didn’t balance with arrests as 20 people were taken into custody over the weekend.”
Six of those people were arrested for municipal court warrants, four were arrested for public intoxication, one for DWI, one for mental evaluation, two on drug related charges, two on theft charges, one for a parole violation warrant, one for disorderly conduct, one for evading arrest, and one for robbery.
According to Chief Hundley, the robbery charge was a result of a suspect stealing over $250 worth of property and then striking an employee while trying to elude capture. Roger Lind, 22, of Paris, was charged with felony robbery.
Investigation into a robbery that took place near an ATM machine at a local bank is ongoing. The victim reported that she withdrew money at the ATM and pulled forward to allow another vehicle access to the machine. When doing so, she was approached by an unknown subject who took her money.
The robbery took place around 4:30 PM Saturday afternoon and was reported to officers at 11:39 PM. The suspect was described a black male dressed in black clothing, 6 foot and 185 pounds.
In another robbery over the weekend, according to police, a business was burglarized at 3850 Lamar. Unknown suspects forced their way into a rear door to gain entry into the business and removed cash from an office. Investigation is continuing.

Four suspects — wearing bandanas on their faces, and one carrying a gun — were involved in robbing a business yesterday evening, according to Paris Police Chief Bob Hundley.
Paris Police responded to an armed robbery call at 6:30 PM in the 600 block of NW 9th Street. Four suspects were involved, with three entering the business with bandanas on their faces.
One of the suspects was armed with a silver pistol and took money from the register. All four suspects left on foot westbound from the store. Investigation is continuing.
A call to an address in the 1100 block SE 3rd Street involving a man with a gun escalated into a high speed chase that ended on FM 1497, according to police.
Michael Scott Walker, 42, initially told dispatchers that he would shoot any police officer that came to his residence. Officers spotted the suspect vehicle and attempted to stop the driver. A short chase took place, and the car pulled over on Neagle St. for a brief moment, but then drove off again.
This portion of the chase was at low speeds, never reaching 50 mph. The pursuit took place around the southern part of Paris, with the suspect leaving the city heading out on FM 1497.
The suspect called 9-1-1 and told dispatchers he wanted to stop. After several calls between the suspect and dispatch, he finally pulled over and stopped. The suspect was taken into custody without incident. An unloaded .22 caliber rifle was found in the front seat of the vehicle. Walker was charged with felony evading arrest with a motor vehicle.
In the 24 hour period of December 27th, seven people were arrested while officers answered 83 calls for service. Two persons were arrested on public intoxication charges, two for municipal court warrants, one for assault involving family violence and criminal mischief, one for mental evaluation and one for felony theft.
