Retired businessman Larry Slack files for mayor’s race
Bowie has its first candidate for mayor as retired car dealer Larry Slack pitched his hat into the ring for the May 9 election.
The mayor’s race is wide open as Mayor Gene Brown cannot run again due to term limits. In addition to Slack, Councilor Mary Owens filed for the ballot and will defend her east ward seat against municipal newcomer Terry Gunter who filed for the race earlier this week. Wayne Bell also filed for the east ward.
Laura Sproles, councilor in the north ward, also has filed for re-election. The south ward council place, filled by Tim Adams, has yet to garner any candidates.
Filing will continue through Feb. 27.
The following indictments were filed with the 97th District Clerk following the November session of the Montague County Grand Jury.
There were a total of 13 indictments with one sealed awaiting the arrest of a suspect.
A grand jury indictment is not evidence of guilt. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
