Two wanted suspects with a combined 11 outstanding warrants were arrested during a traffic stop on Interstate 10 in Waller County, Texas, on 27 August 2026.[1] The Waller County Sheriff’s Office did not identify the two people arrested in its 29 August announcement.[1]

Deputies say they found marijuana and a large quantity of cosmetics believed to have been stolen in the vehicle.[1] The sheriff’s office did not say how much marijuana was recovered or where along I-10 the stop took place.[1] ABC13 Houston reported that cosmetics and cannabis were found inside the suspects’ vehicle.[2]

Sealy police used Flock automated license plate reader technology to learn the suspects’ whereabouts and direction of travel, then relayed the information to Waller County deputies.[1] Deputies stopped the vehicle heading eastbound on I-10 and took both occupants into custody.[1]

The stop led to the recovery of about 786 cosmetic items, which the sheriff’s office valued at about $9,600.[1] Investigators linked the merchandise to thefts from roughly 18 Walgreens and CVS stores in the San Antonio area, and the items were being processed for return to the retailers.[1]
