According to the Seguin Police Department, officers were dispatched around 8:34 a.m. to the 500 block of S. Camp St. after a caller reported seeing a white male wearing a gray shirt and blue jeans with a possible AR-style rifle slung across his back. Officials say officers responded immediately but were unable to locate anyone matching the description. Out of caution, St. James Catholic School was placed on lockdown. Police expanded the search with help from surrounding agencies, combing several blocks in the area, including the Seguin Public Library,

(Seguin -- Preparations are already underway for this year’s Seguin Fall Festival, and organizers are hoping to get a head start by signing up volunteers and recruiting more participants for the classic car show. The event is set for Saturday, Oct. 18, from 9 a.m. to 11 p.m. at Central Park in downtown Seguin. Patrick Pinder, Guadalupe County emergency management coordinator and fire marshal says while vendor spots have already
been filled, the car show is still looking to grow. “We are still looking for entries into the car show. As far as our vendors, food vendors and craft vendors, we are pretty much capped out on that. We have about 50 of those signed up at this time. But we are still waiting and looking for those car show participants. We want to build on last year’s. We are expanding the site a little bit.
