An investigation is underway after a crash involving a Missouri City police officer left two family members dead Thursday evening.

A mother and her son were killed in a car crash on Thursday evening after they were hit by a Missouri City Police car. Missouri City Police said they are still investigating the details after their officer was involved in the fatal accident. The accident happened about 8:40 p.m. as the family was leaving a parking lot when they were hit by the squad car on Cartwright near FM 2234.

Sergeant Steven Woodard with DPS says 53-year-old Angela Stewart and her 16-year-old son Mason were killed in the crash.

“I can confirm to you that he was the driver, and they were both pronounced deceased by the Fort Bend County Medical Examiner’s office,” said Sergeant Woodard.

The officer was responding to a robbery call at an ATM at the time of the collision. That’s when the family pulled out of the parking lot and was T-boned by the officer. Hours after the crash, another person was found in the backseat of the police car.

“As the investigation of the crash was being investigated by the Texas Department of Public Safety, it was discovered the responding officer in the crash had a male occupant in the backseat,” said Missouri City Police Chief Brandon Harris. “The occupant was transported to the Ben Taub Hospital and his condition is unknown.”

The Missouri City Officer was transported to the Medical Center and was later released. Missouri City police said they aren’t sure if the person in the backseat was in custody during the time of the accident. The department says it will be conducting an internal investigation into policies and procedures.

Donut fundraiser helps mid-Missouri family’s medical expenses for treatment in Italy

Donut fundraiser helps mid-Missouri family’s medical expenses for treatment in Italy

A fundraiser on Friday helped raise money for a mid-Missouri family’s effort to get their daughter medical treatment.

Hurts Donut from Springfield, Mo., traveled to Ashland to help the Kroeckel family raise money for their daughter, Harper’s, life-changing medical treatment in Italy.

“After exhausting available treatment options in the United States, the family is now pursuing specialized care that offers new hope for her future,” wrote the Hurts Donut shop in a press release. “Because the treatment, travel expenses and extended medical stays are not covered by insurance, the family is facing more than $85,000 in out-of-pocket costs.”

Harper had been born prematurely at 35 weeks and admitted to the NICU, where a nurse discovered a spot that they assumed to be diaper rash on her bottom. However, further inspection led to her diagnosis of Capillary Malformation-Arteriovenous Malformation, or CM-AVM.

CM-AVM is a genetic mutation at the cellular level that causes blood vessels in certain areas to be tangled, causing swelling, pressure, chronic pain and, in some instances, bleeding. In Harper’s case, it could potentially spread to her spine or brain.

The donut shop set up shop at the Ashland Optimists Club and donated 100% of its Special Tribute donut sales to the Kroeckel family, as well as 10% of the proceeds from its dozen donut sales.

UPDATE: Well-known mid-Missouri attorney charged after sting expected to request home detention | 93.9 The Eagle

A prominent mid-Misssouri attorney has pleaded NOT guilty to a felony charge of enticement or attempted enticement of a child.

56-year-old Daniel Walter Follett is charged in Boone County Circuit Court. He had served as the Missouri Department of Revenue’s (DOR) general counsel until he was fired after last week’s arrest.

Court documents filed by Boone County prosecutors say Follett was allegedly using a prostitution website “to solicit sexual services from a person whom he believed to be a 16-year-old child.” The Boone County Sheriff’s Department’s probable cause statement says Follett allegedly arrived at an address in Boone County last week to pay money to have sex with a female whom he believed was under the age of 17.

Follett, who is currently jailed without bond, is scheduled to appear in court Tuesday afternoon before Judge Kimberly Shaw and is expected to request home detention, based on online court records.

939 the Eagle News contacted the Missouri Department of Revenue (DOR) after Follett’s arrest. DOR released a statement about Follett’s arrest and status last week. It reads: “The Department is aware of an out-of-office incident involving a staff member who was arrested and charged with criminal activity. Following departmental procedures, employment has been terminated with the individual.”

What’s next: Follett is scheduled to appear in Boone County Circuit Court on Tuesday at 1 pm for a bond hearing before Judge Kimberly Shaw. Follett is represented by defense attorney Jessica Caldera, a former Boone County assistant prosecutor. Follett is expected to request home detention from the court until his trial. Boone County prosecutors have described Follett in a court filing as a flight risk.
