A multi-agency operation in Fort Worth that lasted more than two months led to the arrests of 141 people , the seizure of more than 60 kilograms of drugs and the recovery of 38 guns, officials said. The charges faced by the suspects arrested during this operation include possession of a machine gun, escape from detention, narcotics distribution, and illegal reentry into the United States, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Texas. “When bad actors bring illicit drugs, illegal firearms, traffic children and women, and insert violence into our neighborhoods, they threaten the quality of life of our Fort Worth families and residents. That is why we launched Operation New Day,” U.S. Attorney Ryan Raybould said during a news conference on Monday. Raybould said 45 people were arrested on drug-related offenses and face charges of possession with intent to distribute and conspiracy to distribute controlled substances, primarily those dealing methamphetamine and fentanyl in and around Fort Worth. The operation led to the seizure of 100 grams of fentanyl, over 22 kilograms of cocaine and over 45 kilograms of methamphetamine, he said. Related to illegal guns, 15 people face federal charges with more to come, and

Texas high school football powerhouse loses court battle, out of playoffs

Just a few days ago, Argyle Liberty Christian (TX) announced that it would be seeking legal action against the Texas Association of Private and Parochial Schools (TAPPS) decision to ban the Warriors from postseason play . On Tuesday, a Denton County Courthouse denied the school's request for a temporary restraining order. Charles Baggarly of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported that the decision was announced after several hours of deliberation. The ruling keeps Liberty Christian out of the TAPPS Division I postseason. According to Baggarly, 362nd Judicial District Court Judge Bruce McFarling ruled that TAPPS did not do anything illegal or against public policy. The ruling from McFarling came down to proper due process, not whether the athlete was coached by Griffin or if the athlete was ineligible.

Toddler wandered from Fort Worth daycare, found in middle of street: lawsuit

A toddler escaped her Fort Worth childcare center and was found alone on a busy road, according to a new lawsuit filed against BeYOUtiful Beginnings childcare center. Felisha and Travae Jones allege their 2-year-old daughter wandered from the center on a hot summer’s day in August 2025 without staff noticing. Their daughter, who is referred to as F.J. in the suit, was found by two Good Samaritans “in the middle of a high-traffic street” — Parkwood Hill Boulevard, just north of Basswood Boulevard, in far northeast Fort Worth. The lawsuit was filed in Tarrant County District Court on Thursday. The family, represented by attorney Russell Button of The Button Law Firm, is requesting monetary damages of more than $1 million and a jury trial. BeYOUtiful Beginnings did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Monday. “A daycare lost a 2-year-old for so long that she was able to wander through (a) parking lot and alleyway completely unnoticed, go down a grassy hill, and walk into traffic, while nobody inside the daycare even knew she was missing,” Button said. “It’s Daycare 101: Don’t lose children.
