The following are excerpts from just some of the reports recently generated by the Texas County Sheriff’s Department:

• On Jan. 31, a deputy responded to a report of a suicidal woman at a Craddock Drive residence at Licking.

The officer made contact with a 48-year-old man and 47-year-old woman who said a 74-year-old woman who is a dementia patient had gone into a nearby wooded area after threatening suicide.

After a search of the woods, the woman was located. She told the deputy she wasn’t suicidal, but had made the statement to the other two people out of anger.
