Kaplan Police looking for suspect
Kaplan Police Chief Boyd Adams is asking for help in locating a suspect who fled from police officers.
Adams said the department responded to a caller who complained of a man sitting in his vehicle at the corner of J. Viator and Irving Street (near the cemetery). The caller also stated the vehicle had three pounds of marijuana in the trunk of the vehicle.
When police approached the vehicle, the driver immediately reversed the car and hit an officer while fleeing.
