Recently, a Longview man was found after he escaped from a Gregg County jail. Michael Fagan was about to be booked for possession of a controlled substance when he took off and escaped from the jail. Sheriffs later found Fagan hiding between a box spring and mattress in his girlfriend’s home. Fagan now faces two additional counts of evading arrest.

Ragan’s case will be brought before the Gregg County Court, which also handles family, civil, and probate matters.  Federal cases in Longview will be taken before the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas.
