San
Antonio, TX – Paul Coe White, 26, of San Antonio was arrested by U.S.
Marshals Gulf Coast Violent Offenders Task Force, in Houston, Texas. White was
wanted by the San Antonio Police Department for Robbery, Narcotics and Evading
Arrest.
The U.S. Marshals Lone Star Fugitive Task Force in San Antonio had been
investigating the whereabouts of White for the last two weeks. On two different
occasions Task Force Deputies were just minutes behind White. When Deputies
arrived at these locations, White had just left. Information was developed
through this investigation that White may have fled San Antonio to Houston.
Deputies contacted the U.S. Marshals Gulf Coast Violent Offenders Task Force in
Houston and requested assistance in locating and apprehending White.
Last night members of the Gulf Coast Violent Offenders Task Force in Houston
located a residence where they believed White to be staying. Deputies approached
the residence and located White inside. White was arrested without incident.
The U.S. Marshal for the Western District of Texas Robert Almonte said “We will
pursue all violent offenders far and wide. The cooperation of our fellow task
forces only strengths our resolve to bring these criminals to justice.”
