A suspect is in custody after allegedly ramming an 18-wheel semi-truck into a Texas Department of Public Safety building in Brenham, according to law enforcement.
The Texas Tribune reported that the driver stole the truck and drove it into the building after he was denied a commercial driver’s license this week.
“I have been briefed and this incident was intentional and done by the suspect who was denied a CDL yesterday,” said Montgomery County Judge Mark Keough. “He returned today with intent to harm. Continued prayers for the DPS staff, troopers and civilians affected.”
Washington County Sheriff Otto Hanak said, “We believe this was a criminal act.”
