SANTA FE, TX - Thursday a Santa Fe police K-9 alerted to 1/4 pound of marijuana on a traffic stop in the 12300 block of 11th ST in Santa Fe. The driver of the vehicle was a 16 year old Santa Fe juvenile who was taken into custody for felony marijuana possession.

While monitoring the home in the Santa Fe Trails sub-division, they observed people removing items from the home and placing them in two vehicles.

As the detective was delivering the warrant to the residence, two vehicles left the residence suspected of removing items listed in the search warrant.

Both vehicles were stopped and narcotics and paraphernalia were seized after K-9 alerts on both. A 9mm handgun was also located concealed in one of the vehicles.

Upon execution of the search warrant, more narcotics, as well as paraphernalia was discovered inside the residence.

Police also recovered a stolen ATV valued at $12,000.00 inside the garage of the residence. The ATV was one of three stolen along with a vehicle and trailer in a commercial burglary in La Porte.

As the result of the stops and warrant, police recovered the stolen ATV and seized almost a 1/2 pound of marijuana, 30 grams of Soma, 20 grams of Xanax, along with unmarked tablets which will be submitted to the DPS lab for evaluation.

The 16 year old was booked into Juvenile Detention on felony marijuana possesion >4oz < 5 lbs, felony Possession of Controlled Substance > 28 grams < 200 grams, and Felony Theft $1500 -$20,000.00.

45 year old Brian McAdams of Santa Fe was also arrested on charges of Possession of Controlled Substance Penalty Group 3 > 28g < 200 grams, he was booked into the Galveston County Jail on a $30,000.00 bond.

Santa Fe police and Auto Crimes Task Force members will be working with La Porte police regarding the burglary and the ATV thefts. Santa Fe police Detective A. Griswold stated that many people have been interviewed and he believes additional suspects directly related to the thefts will be charged, as well as those determined to have assisted or provided false information during the investigation.

Good job!!! This child runs amuck all over Santa Fe and his parents condone it... Its a sad situation when you use your child as an accessory to drug dealing. Thank you for getting both of these jerks off the streets. Now, if they would just move out of Santa Fe, to somewhere more fitting like La Marque or Texas City.

People should really get their facts straight before they posts things pretending to know what they are talking about. People make mistakes, they are only human. I will be praying for this family.

There is a group of thugs here in santa fe that need to be out of here. The police have now caught two of them (one on another charge). They need to get these guys off the streets and quit sending them back here. They have about 4-6 more of this group still to get.

I know the child, and I dont blame the him. I blame the parents, and its no longer a mistake after the 2nd time. Perhaps cps should have take him years ago. But they didnt and now he is running around doing what his parents have done. I appologize for saying the family should move to texas city or lamarque. TDC would be more appropriate. Either way I will sleep better knowing these two are off the streets. And yes, I will pray for them and their future neighbors and anyone twisted enough to get involved with this family.

Slander...Please!!! It's people like you, who feel sorry for these idiots, that keep them on the street. Put them all in jail!

Again....this isn't the only kid out there. His group of 7-10 friends are also thugs. Get them all off the streets. They wreck havoc. But they know they can get away with anything and everything around here because they get a slap on the wrist and then goes back home to do it all again. Theft, drugs, burgulary....it is only going to escalate from here. Stop them now before they hurt someone.
