SUMMARY: Bear County law enforcement agencies express concern over a new booking policy by Sheriff Javier Salazar, which delays jail intake for suspects requiring medical screening. The directive, aimed at addressing jail deaths, mandates that suspects detoxing from substances or with serious medical conditions must be evaluated at a hospital before booking. This has led to significant delays and complications for officers, with reports of suspects being released instead of booked. Smaller agencies worry that the policy jeopardizes public safety. Despite the concerns raised, Sheriff Salazar maintains that the policy is necessary to improve health outcomes for detainees.

Several area law enforcement agencies said a new directive from Bexar County Sheriff Javier Salazar puts public safety at risk.

SUMMARY: Chilly air has settled in, and temperatures are expected to drop further tonight and into the weekend. Chief meteorologist Chris Franklin reports that temperatures will be a few degrees colder, with widespread 30s on the North Shore and 50s in the metro area. Clear skies have resulted in high temperatures staying below average, with daytime highs in the 60s. The colder air might allow North Shore areas to reach the 30s and create patchy frost by Saturday morning. Chris will provide updates on how long this cold spell will last as Thanksgiving approaches.
