Community Reception Honoring WTAW Radio’s Scott DeLucia

Bryan Broadcasting hosts a community reception honoring Scott DeLucia’s work in the community and his career hosting WTAW’s The Infomaniacs, which ends on Friday (June 5) as he retires. Leading off speakers at Tuesday’s event (June 2) was Bryan Broadcasting CEO Bill Hicks, who shared Scott worked for a member of his family’s radio stations for 58 years. Bryan Broadcasting general manager Ben Downs says Scott will continue to have a presence on WTAW doing political interviews. A proclamation read by Brazos County county judge Duane Peters, Bryan mayor Bobby Gutierrez, and College Station mayor John Nichols designated Tuesday as Scott DeLucia Day. The proclamation also declared “6 a.m. to be the new official start of Scott DeLucia standard time, thereby granting him a permanent municipal clearance to sleep in, free from early morning alerts, phone calls, (and) politics.” A state of Texas resolution was presented by state representative and longtime listener Paul Dyson of Bryan. There was also a presentation from the president of the Bryan/College Station chamber of commerce, Glen Brewer. Scott was also presented the WTAW promotional pickle that was autographed by those attending the reception. Following a tribute video, Scott closed the program reminiscing about his nearly 60 year career and thanking listeners “I thank you for sharing with me your thoughts. The fact that you come and say that you listen to me makes me feel good. I might not know your name just because you know my name. It doesn’t mean it’s not a two way communication. This is still a very personal, personal business. We get a chance to talk to you, to see you, to be to be a part of your life and you get to be a part of our life.” Click below to hear the community reception program honoring Scott DeLucia June 2, 2026.

Bryan Man Who Leads Bryan Police On A 12 Mile Chase Is Also Held On A Warrant From Nueces County

At least five Bryan police officers were involved in a car chase Friday night (May 29) lasting 12 miles and at speeds of up to 100 miles per hour. After 40 minutes and two failed attempts to flatten the car tires using spoke strips, the driver stopped in the parking lot of the police department. 57 year old Bruce Malcolm went to jail for evading arrest, aggravated assault with a gun, and interfering with a 9-1-1 call. Bonds on those charges totals $65,000 dollars. The pursuit began near the Bryan VFW on Harvey Mitchell Parkway and continued on Leonard Road, Highways 47 and 21, William Joel Bryan Parkway, Texas, and 29th Street before ending in the BPD parking lot. After Malcolm was booked in the Brazos County jail, jail records show he is being held without bond on a warrant from Nueces County for unlawful restraint of a person exposing the victim to serious bodily injury.

Preview Of Bryan/College Station Sister Cities Mural Dedication

In February, the Bryan city council approved grant funding to help pay the cost of a mural that is a project of the Bryan/College Station sister cities organization. The dedication of the mural, on the west side of the Clara B. Mounce library that faces the railroad tracks, is Wednesday (June 3) at 5:30. The organization’s board secretary, Chuck Martinez, says among those attending the program includes representatives of all four sister cities. That includes the mayor of Salamanca Mexico and officials from the U.S. consulates representing Bastogne Belgium, Greifswald Germany, and Torun Poland. The mural’s artist comes from the sister city in Germany. Martinez says the artist’s concept uses animals representing Bryan and each sister city. The mural also incorporates phrases representing each city…the American phrase Learn Together, the Spanish phrase for curiosity and connection, the French phrase representing Belgium for inspire each other, the German phrase for discovering together, and the Polish phrase for exploring new paths. A sister cities news release says the mural “is a visual symbol for citizen diplomacy, celebrating Bryan-College Station’s international friendships and promoting peace through mutual respect, understanding, and cooperation — one individual, one community at a time.” Additional funding for the mural comes from a state grant and community corporate sponsors.
