Texas Democratic U.S. Rep. Henry Cuellar and his wife were indicted on conspiracy and bribery charges and taken into custody on Friday, May 3.
CROSBY, Texas — Several Crosby ISD students were removed from a school bus that stopped in flood water Friday morning.
It happened around 6:28 a.m. The bus driver was traveling on Gulf Pump Road near Maple Street near the San Jacinto River with 27 students on board when he spotted high water on the road, the district said. At the time, there were no high-water barricades or barriers in place. The driver stopped the bus and had students go out the back door.
“I am proud of the quick action of our bus driver, bystanders, and Precinct 3 deputy constables for their assistance this morning,” Superintendent Paula Patterson said. “The safety of our students is our top priority, and we are grateful for so many great neighbors in the Crosby /Barrett Station communities. We also appreciate officials for placing high-water barricades along Gulf Pump Road following this incident.
