Man arrested after killing two while drunk driving
Two individuals were killed and one Plano resident was arrested after a drunk driving accident, Nov. 6. Plano Police and Plano Fire-Rescue responded to a serious traffic crash Friday evening involving two vehicles near the intersection of Alma Drive and Cross Bend Road. Upon arrival, two occupants in one of the vehicles were found unconscious. Plano Fire Rescue personnel attempted life-saving measures which were unsuccessful. Both individuals were declared dead at the scene. Based on the preliminary police investigation, a Toyota Rav4 was struck by a Ford F150 after attempting to make a left turn onto westbound Cross Bend Road on a flashing yellow light. The Ford, traveling at high speeds, was driven by 22-year-old Steve Jaramillo, who is now in custody. The Rav4 flipped and landed on its right side, striking the traffic signal pole and a tree on the southwest corner of the intersection. Jaramillo was arrested for driving while intoxicated. This incident remains under investigation by the Plano Police Traffic Unit. Additional charges will be considered pending the outcome of the investigation. The victims were later identified by police as Vickie Ann Atwell, a 60-year-old Plano woman and Marshall Warren Gulley, a 67-year old Plano man.

Fourth-quarter comeback sees Celina score 21 straight, stun Lovejoy for bi-district win
LOVEJOY--- After finishing the regular season 9-1, the Lovejoy football team secured home-field advantage at Leopard Stadium to open the postseason against Celina. Lovejoy was able to secure and extend its lead throughout the contest until the script got flipped in the fourth quarter where Celina scored 21 straight to secure a 28-20 comeback victory. A constant force from start to finish, senior running back Evan Koehne carried the ball 33 times for 142 yards and a pair of touchdowns with both scores coming in the pivotal final frame. “It feels great. We worked a really long time for this,” said Koehne. “It was really important to us, it was a really good team and we were excited to go out there and beat them. “Being able to trust the defense is obviously great, to know that in the back of your mind they will always be there for us.” Although Celina (8-3) secured the comeback, the outlook was dreary throughout. Perhaps the most daunting moment, Lovejoy (9-2) was forced to punt but recovered a loose, live ball late in the third quarter. Junior Leopard quarterback Nixon Slaughter instantly found junior Luke Gahan with space for a 23-yard touchdown, pushing
