By Jamie Nash SOUTH MONTGOMERY COUNTY – An assault suspect from The Woodlands died in the early hours of Saturday after leading officers on a high-speed chase that ended when he crashed his motorcycle. The deceased is identified as Timothy Jason Jones, 24, of 3326 Willie Way. Just after 2 a.m. the Montgomery Sheriff’s Office dispatched deputies to a Whataburger restaurant on Sawdust Rd. to investigate a possible assault. According to MCSO Lt. Dan Norris, after the deputy was on-scene, one of the alleged victims identified a passing motorcyclist as one of the suspects. The deputy followed the 2004 Honda 600 motorcycle, driven by Jones, with lights and sirens activated, trying to initiate a traffic stop. Jones looked back at the patrol vehicle and sped away turning on Grogan’s Mill Rd., Norris said, and reaching speeds believed to be in excess of 120 mph. Shortly after the bike turned west on S. Millbend Dr., Jones lost control and crashed, ending the pursuit just east of Acorn Oak St. Deputies notified Montgomery County EMS. MCSO Sgt. Brice Herring arrived shortly after the crash, and performed CPR until medics arrived. Jones was transported by ground ambulance to a local hospital where he was pronounced dead. The Texas Department of Public Safety is investigating the crash and the MCSO will continue any investigation required regarding the original assault. ... tagged: woodlands, scott j. engle, jones, fatal. less

By Jamie B. NashNovember 15, 2009 An hour and 15 minutes after the UTMB Montgomery County Health Department began administering the H1N1 vaccine at Conroe High School on Saturday, all 1,000 doses were gone. The event was scheduled to begin at 9 a.m., but started at 8:30 instead because hundreds of people were already in line, according to Emily Llinas, Montgomery County Public Health Preparedness director. Rebecca Bartlett was first in line, arriving around 12:45 a.m. to make sure the third time was a charm in trying to get her daughters vaccinated. The family was in line for the shots at Lone Star College, but the vaccinations were gone before they made it to the front. They tried again on Nov. 7, but that vaccination event was postponed. Finally, Bartlett’s tenacity paid off. “I’m glad we got it done,” she said. “It’s a good experience.” Llinas said by 9 a.m. only about 150 tickets remained undistributed out of 1,000. She was pleased at how quickly the line moved, which she said was faster than the previous clinic partly because only the injectable form of the H1N1 vaccine was distributed. Llinas said the vaccine was becoming more accessible and there should now be at least 1,000 doses available at every clinic. Montgomery County received 3,600 doses last week and officials expect to receive similar amounts over the next several weeks. “We’re soon going to see huge numbers of vaccine everywhere,” Llinas said. “We’re cautiously optimistic that we’re coming to the end of the H1N1 wave.” The traditional “flu season” officially started Oct. 1, but usually picks up in January and February, she said. ... tagged: conroe, swine flu, scott j. engle, montgomery county news less

80-year-old car flips, kills Willis woman Three others injured, two seriously Story, photos by Jamie Nash / video by Scott Engle June 14, 2009 CONROE- One woman was killed and three others were injured in a one-vehicle rollover crash that occurred around 9:30 p.m. Saturday night on South Loop 336 near Interstate 45. A 1929 Ford Roadster went out of control for unknown reasons and flipped into the grassy median, ejecting the passengers, according to Conroe Police. Click the arrow to view video. Daredeth Perry Ward, 45, of Willis was pronounced dead on arrival at Memorial Hermann Hospital in the Texas Medical Center, Houston. Daredeth Ward was the driver. Passenger Amy Ward, 33, was also transported to Hermann Hospital in Houston with ?serious? injuries, and her 15-year-old daughter was transported to the same facility with ?critical? injuries. It was not immediately clear how Daredeth and Amy Ward were related, since their age difference was only 12 years. The fourth occupant was a 16-year-old family friend who was transported to Conroe Regional Medical Center with minor injuries. She was treated and released. William Mayo and his fianc? witnessed the crash from the parking lot of the China Buffet, where he said the car left westbound moments before the crash. Mayo did not see the Roadster make a u-turn back toward the freeway, but he noticed the headlights as the car began to turn sideways, he said. ?It hit the curb, went up in the air and it just flipped,? Mayo said. ?That?s when I came running over.? Three of the four occupants were unresponsive. The fourth, an injured 15-year-old girl, was trying to get away from the car, he said. The rear axle broke off and landed a few yards from the car, with two of the tires still attached. Conroe Police Sgt. Bob Berry issued a press release Sunday afternoon that stated the initial investigation indicated the four women were not wearing seatbelts. Further investigation and witness interviews supported the explanation that the car accelerated rapidly, exceeding the 40 mph speed limit, losing traction and sliding sideways into the esplanade where it flipped about one-and-a-half times, ejecting the occupants. Conroe Police Officers and members of the Community Oriented Response Team (CORT) began the investigation on-scene and are continuing that investigation as of this writing. ... tagged: scott j. engle, conroe, loop 336 less
