TRAFFIC STOP LEADS TO ARREST OF WANTED FELONS
On Thursday, May 19, 2022 at approximately 7:38 PM, Precinct 8 Deputy Peters was actively patrolling the area of the 4200 block of Spencer Hwy when she observed a vehicle displaying a fictitious temporary permit. Deputy Peters initiated a traffic stop of the vehicle. The vehicle failed to yield and continued traveling, passing several stopping locations. The vehicle ultimately came to a stop near the 4600 block of Vista Rd, and two males exited the vehicle and fled on foot. Deputy Peters detained the driver who remained in the vehicle. The driver was identified as 28 year old Sadie Marie Payne. A check of Payne’s information revealed an open felony warrant through Harris County Sheriff’s Office for Forgery.
Witnesses on scene observed one of the fleeing suspect’s drop a firearm in the parking lot of a nearby daycare and jump the fence line in the 3400 block of Preston Ave. Deputies located the handgun and secured it. The second male was seen running along the ditch line near Crepe Myrtle Ln. Responding units set a perimeter and began a search of the area.
A responding Pasadena police officer located one of the suspects in the 4900 block of Crepe Myrtle Ln. He was identified as 34 year old Christopher Scott Wallace. A check of Wallace’s information revealed he an open parole warrant for Forgery. Deputies retrieved Wallace’s backpack which contained the following:
.22 fully loaded revolver handgun
1 box of .22 ammunition
21.42 grams of methamphetamine
4.9 grams of Xanax
2.1 grams of Heroin
Counterfeit currency
Counterfeit checking marker
A further search of the vehicle yielded numerous documents with identifying information and several pieces of mail not belonging to either subject.
The Harris County District Attorney’s Office was contacted and accepted Felon in Possession of a Weapon, Possession with Intent to Deliver and Forgery on Wallace. Payne was charged with Eluding. Both subjects were transported to the Harris County Joint Processing Center. Their bonds have no yet been set.
