    it may have been a dry run and they were coming back for the real thing today although to attack a church on Monday would not have the impact of Sunday during mass

    I am guessing they did not realize the doods out here in Burnet are true to screw around and find out lol.

    Ah its just a poduck small town they aint got shit ;).

    Church is on the north end of town, right on 281, pretty isolated. Hope they get caught. Better look at Killeen & Copperas Cove area. Guess we need cameras on our guns now to get plate number.

    UPDATED RELEASE:
    The Burnet County Sheriff’s Office conducted a thorough investigation of this incident. The investigation involved Deputies, Detectives, and support personnel from all divisions of the agency, along with the invaluable assistance of the agencies listed below. This investigation lasted well into the night, resumed immediately this morning, and involved law enforcement assets from across the state.
    In the course of this investigation, the safety team member who had fired the shots admitted that he had fabricated significant details of this incident and had lied to law enforcement and others about this incident.
    There were no hostile actions taken or directed at the church by any persons, and no weapons brandished toward the church or the safety team member. At no time was the safety of the congregation in jeopardy.
    As a result of this false story, the safety team member, Jacob Wayne Tarver (age 45, of Burnet County) has been arrested and charged with False Report to Induce an Emergency Response(a Class A Misdemeanor), Tampering With Or Fabricating Physical Evidence (a 3rd-Degree Felony), and Deadly Conduct (a 3rd-Degree Felony). He was jailed in the Burnet County Jail and is awaiting a magistration hearing to set bail.

    PLEA TO THE PUBLIC:
    Please remain alert for actual threats to public safety and continue to report suspicious activity to the proper authorities. That said, do not give in to the unfounded fears that are a result of this false story. Sheriff Boyd asks that members of the public disseminate this update broadly by liking, sharing, re-posting, and freely discussing it. The rumors and speculation surrounding this case have only served to cause fear, mistrust, and animosity within the community. This falsehood can only be counteracted by the widespread
    announcement of the truth.
