Shelby County Sheriff Willis Blackwell states that during the evening of December 25, 2014 and the morning of December 26, 2014, unidentified individual(s) destroyed several mailboxes along FM 3184, FM 3172, FM 139, and FM 417 East.

 

Based on the degree of destruction caused to the mailboxes, it is
believed an explosive was used.  One explosion caused a grass fire that
burned a portion of a hay field, and another grass fire in the Huxley area was reported, but the cause remains uncertain at this time. 

 

The suspect's vehicle was described as being loud as it sped away from locations before an explosion was heard.
