Motorists in College Station driving Thursday morning (September 5) on Welsh between Holleman and Southwest Parkway may have noticed a large police presence. CSPD’s social media says their SWAT team joined the special investigative unit in executing what was described as a “high risk narcotics search warrant”. Two College Station residents were arrested. 23 year old Kaden Luna was charged with delivering up to five pounds of marijuana and unlawful possession of a firearm by a felon. 47 year old Monica Luna was arrested for possessing up to five pounds of marijuana. WTAW News has asked CSPD about the relationship between the Luna’s, the amount of marijuana that was seized, and its street value. As of Thursday afternoon, online jail records did not list a bond amount for either person. A College Station police officer stops a car Thursday (September 5) at two in the morning for driving without working headlights and taillights and for unconfirmed insurance. CSPD arrest reports say the driver, 47 year old Burnis Price of San Antonio, was taken to jail for possessing marijuana and methamphetamine, evidence tampering for dropping the meth outside the car and grinding it into the pavement, and endangering three children under the age of three by having the drugs in the car. The arrest report did not say who took custody of the children. As of Thursday afternoon, online jail records listed only a bond on the misdemeanor marijuana charge of $3,000 dollars.
Dean Swartzlander, Bryan’s new police chief, visits with WTAW’s Scott DeLucia about his background, his career with the Bryan Police Department, training changes he has made, department statistics, his future plans for the department, non-violent crime, home security systems, and more during his appearance on The Infomaniacs on Thursday, September 5, 2024.

The general manager of the Brazos Transit District (BTD) and the Bryan city council discusses multiple topics during the council’s August workshop meeting. Click HERE to read and download presentation materials from the Brazos Transit District during the August 13, 2024 Bryan city council meeting. BTD general manager Wendy Weedon’s presentation included an explanation of asking for the first time, local funding to continue the present level of bus service in Bryan and College Station. As of today (September 4), the Bryan council and Brazos County commission have not adopted fiscal year 2025 budgets. The College Station council included BTD’s funding request as part of their FY 25 budget. BTD’s request from all three local governments is $334,000 dollars each. Weedon says that helps make up a loss of over $2 million in federal and state funding because BTD is now considered a large urban operation and is competing with the nation’s largest cities for federal and state money. Weedon told the Bryan council that BTD has unspent money from prior years to make up the remainder of the shortfall for FY 25. The Bryan council did not give an indication during the workshop discussion of its support of BTD’s funding request. Council questions of Weedon included getting more bus stop signs, benches, and shelters. Weedon said they have federal money for signs, benches, and shelters. But BTD does not have the money to acquire the right of way. Weedon also said BTD has received federal money to buy electric-powered trolleys. But there is no money to operate the trolleys, which she estimated is a cost of between $180,000 and $200,000 dollars per trolley per year.
