Coke County Sheriff's Office Arrests 58-Year-Old Dennis Seider of Robert Lee, Texas on May 28 on Charges of Aggravated Assault With a Deadly Weapon After a West Texas Auto Recovery Driver Said He Was Shot at From the Front Porch While Repossessing a Vehicle on Seashore Lane

A West Texas Auto Recovery driver told Coke County Sheriff's Office investigators a man left a house in the 100 block of Seashore Lane in Robert Lee, Texas and fired shots from the front porch toward his tow truck Wednesday evening, causing windshield glass to fly and leaving the driver with a laceration above the left eyebrow and roughly $3,000 in vehicle damage, according to SanAngeloLive. Sheriff's investigators arrested 58-year-old Dennis Seider on May 28 on charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and criminal mischief; the driver identified Seider from a photo array.

Operator takeaway

Coke County is rural West Texas and a single sheriff's office is the entire law enforcement response. Confirm every repo driver assigned to a remote-county address has GPS sharing on his phone and a documented disengage protocol before he walks up to the truck.
