A mother tells Bryan police her son has skated too long and wanted criminal charges to stick. According to the BPD arrest report, that was followed by the mother giving officers a backpack from her son’s bedroom which was full of laptops and headphones which she said did not belong to him. The backpack contained another laptop, multiple air pods, knives, and sunglasses. The son later told officers he and two others committed vehicle burglaries that included taking more than $1,200 dollars from one vehicle in College Station. The mother’s son, 17 year old Ryan Allen, and 17 year old Labrawn Gooden of Bryan were arrested on charges of engaging in organized criminal activity. Allen was also arrested for theft of personal property and identity theft.
