An Alvin police officer monitors traffic along the Bypass 35 corridor near SH 6 in Alvin.
Police officers have occasionally been stationed, not only in this area, but also along other
parts of the state highway in hopes of reminding motorists to be wary of their speed limit while
operating their vehicle. Story, Page 2A. (Staff photo by Albert Villegas)

tag on it, that is theft," he said.
In Texas, anyone caught steal-
ing newspapers or coupons out
of newspapers from a newspaper
rack may be guilty of a class C
misdemeanor. According to the
Tex. Pen. Code Ann. § 31.03(e)(1)
(A), property stolen less than $50 is
considered a class C misdemeanor
with a punishment of no more than
$500 and does not involve any jail
time (§ 12.23).
Anyone caught stealing a news-
paper rack could be guilty of a class
B misdemeanor if the value of the
property stolen is $50 or more, but
less than $500 (§ 31.03(e)(2). Pun-
ishment for a class B misdemeanor
in Texas is a sentence of confine-
ment in jail for a term of not more
than 180 days, a fine of not more
than $2,000, or both. (§ 12.22).

For the past several weeks the
Alvin Advertiser and Alvin Sun-
Advertiser have been stolen from
newspaper racks. Someone even
stole a newspaper rack from the
front of a convenience store on SH
6 in Alvin.
“It amazes me that people want
our newspapers so much that they
are willing to steal them,” said Dan
Moore, publisher. “But, to steal a
rack, that is a first in my career.”
Most of the theft takes place
when the newspapers have cou-
pons in them. Some buy one paper,
but help themselves to several ex-
tra ones without paying for them.
Others just take the coupons out
of the other papers. When they do
this they are taking money out of
the pocket of the delivery person,
as well as coupons for families that
may really need them, Moore said.
It may come as a surprise to
some, but this is considered steal-
ing or theft, he adds.
