"Never a dull moment in the CAN. Navarro County Sheriff deputies and Corsicana Police Officer were able to stop and handcuff a suspected gunman at the intersection of W. 7th Ave. and 45th St. around 10:15 a.m. Sunday. According to witnesses, law enforcement officers seized an undisclosed number of firearms from the suspects vehicle.

Additional information from FB posts states the unidentified male suspect had pulled a gun on someone in the Walmart garden area and asked the person "are you ready to die?", before he fled in an early model Mitsubishi pickup. The suspect later became involved in a chase from police after the incident was called into authorities. No one was injured from the incident."
