At around 1:00 a.m. on this date, a Frisco police officer on patrol in a neighborhood near the intersection of Hillcrest Road and Rolater Road observed a vehicle driving in and out of alleyways in a residential community.  The officer conducted a traffic stop on the vehicle and its three occupants after observing a traffic violation.  The officer’s suspicion into the actions of the occupants of this vehicle led to an investigation that resulted in a search of the vehicle and its passengers.

Officers found two pistols that were stolen from a nearby neighborhood, which is also in Frisco and close to where the occupants were first observed by the officer.  Frisco police arrested 19-year-old Michael Tillman of Frisco for Theft of a Firearm and three outstanding warrants out of the Dallas Police Department, and 18-year-old Donald Wahl of Frisco for Theft of a Firearm, Possession of Drug Paraphernalia, and for a traffic violation.  The third occupant in the vehicle was questioned and released at the scene by officers.

 Theft of a Firearm is a state jail felony in the State of Texas, punishable by up to two years in state jail and up to a $10,000 fine.  Currently, both Wahl and Tillman are being held at the Frisco City Jail on a bond of $2,500 each for the Theft of a Firearm and various fines for the other related offenses. 

 

 The Frisco Police Department is dedicated to reducing auto burglaries and would like to remind you to LOCK, TAKE, and HIDE your belongings in order to reduce your risk of becoming a victim of vehicle burglary.
