College Station Police Arrest Two West Texas Residents While Assisting The U.S. Marshal’s Office And Huntsville Police

College Station police assists the U.S. Marshal’s office and Huntsville police in the capture of a west Texas man. CSPD arrest reports say the Marshal’s office requested assistance in capturing the man who was inside the Home Depot on Monday (July 22) because “he was described to be armed and had made statements he would shoot at police if he was contacted by them.” The man, accompanied by a woman, were seen exiting Home Depot and got into a pickup truck that was reported stolen from Huntsville. The truck left the parking lot, drove west on University, then turned onto Spring Loop. A CSPD officer following the truck attempted to make a traffic stop on Spring Loop. A pursuit continued on Spring Loop, reaching a top speed of 80 miles per hour. The chase crossed Tarrow into the Chimney Hill neighborhood. The truck stopped on Hearthstone Circle, a cul-de-sac. The man and woman were both placed in handcuffs after they exited the truck. The man who was driving the truck was identified as 26 year old Tyler Axel Rogers of Andrews. He was arrested on CSPD charges of evading while driving the stolen vehicle and possessing a stolen gun as a convicted felon. Jail records show he was also arrested on warrants from Gaines County (TX) for theft, burglary of a building, and evading, a warrant from Yoakum County (TX) for unauthorized use of a motor vehicle, and a warrant from Lea County (NM) for false evidence of title and registration. Rogers remains jailed as of July 24th in lieu of bonds totaling $113,000 dollars. The woman who was a passenger, 31 year old Danielle Castillo of Seminole Texas, was arrested on a CSPD charge of possessing methamphetamine and warrants from Gaines County (TX) for theft of a firearm and unlawful possession of a firearm by a felon. Castillo remains jailed as of July 24th in lieu of bonds totaling $61,000 dollars.
