College Station Police Arrests A Daughter For Assaulting A Mother And Two Officers And A Man For Threatening An Officer During A Traffic Stop

Two College Station police officers received medical treatment for minor injuries after they were assaulted by a 17 year old woman who had assaulted her mother on a bus leaving town for Houston. CSPD arrest reports say Cadence Masterpool of Houston slapped her mother’s face in the back of the bus, causing the mother to move to the front of the bus. That led the bus driver to tell the daughter to come to the front and apologize to her mother. At the front of the bus, the daughter is accused of hitting her mother with her cell phone, resulting in an open cut that covered the mother’s face with blood. Arrest reports do not say if the mother received any medical treatment. Masterpool is also charged with kicking, scratching, and biting one CSPD officer and kicking, scratching, and spitting on a second officer. Masterpool, who was arrested Monday (April 6), remains jailed as of April 10th in lieu of bonds totaling $46,000 dollars. An 18 year old Bryan man returns to jail for the fourth time since April of 2025. College Station police arrest reports say Dequarius Wilson threatened an officer after he was caught with marijuana during a traffic stop. Wilson, who was charged with retaliation and misdemeanor possession of marijuana, is out of jail after posting bonds totaling $18,000 dollars. Online records show Wilson is awaiting criminal trials in Brazos County district court, one for felony theft and misdemeanor evading arrest that took place in April 2025 and the other for misdemeanor possession of marijuana that took place in January 2026.
