BRIDGE CITY, Texas — Law enforcement across Orange County spent Monday looking for suspects wanted for a break-in and robbery at a home.
Investigators say Colton Logan and John Bailey are both behind bars after the search.
With the help of the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office Aviation Unit, one of the suspects was spotted from the air. His location was communicated to those working on the ground, and he was arrested according to a Jefferson County Sheriff's Office news release. The second suspect was later arrested.
The arrests were made in connection to a break-in that happened around 10 Monday morning near Inez Street in Orange County according to Detective Joshua Lockett.
Only one person was home when the break-in took place. The resident was assaulted, but their injuries are not life-threatening, Lockett said.
He said an officer spotted a suspect's car and chased it near FM 408, where two people jumped out.
Both Orangefield ISD and Bridge City ISD were notified about police activity near schools.
This morning, the Jefferson County Aviation Unit was called to assist in a manhunt in Orange County. JCSO pilots were joined by Bridge City Sgt. Byrd who was familiar with the Bessie Heights area where two suspects had fled on foot. Pilots spotted one of the suspects in a wooded area near a fence line and were able to radio his exact location to the responding officers. The suspect was quickly taken into custody.
