Bowie man jailed for solicitation of a minor
A 40-year-old Bowie man has been arrested on a complaint of online solicitation of a minor, along with several other unrelated cases.
Scott Sheldon Lee was arrested on March 9 of complaints of evading arrest with a vehicle, failure to appear, expired registration, unauthorized use of a motor vehicle and surety off bond-possession of a controlled substance one-four grams. Bonds totaled $39,662 and as of Monday he remained in the county jail.
Chief Deputy Jack Lawson said an additional complaint of online solicitation allegedly occurred two days after Lee was in jail, when he reportedly called from the jail phone to talk with a 16-year-old female and made inappropriate comments allegedly leading to the filing of an online solicitation case.

The regular meeting of the Bowie City Council for July 22 has been cancelled. City Manager Bert Cunningham and Mayor Gaylynn Burris will be attending the Texas Public Power Association conference.
City of Bowie officials were on hand to inspect the emergency electrical generators that were delivered last week.
Mayor Gaylynn Burris and City Manager Bert Cunningham inspected one of three emergency electrical generators purchased as part of an ongoing Federal Emergency Management Agency Hazard Mitigation Grant. They also talked with Jay Evans, head of the city electric department, and Jerry Sutton, director of the water treatment plant about the next step for installation of the generators.
This grant provides funding for one 150 kW and two 250 kW generators for use at the water treatment plant.
