College Station
A suspect is in custody following a multi-agency police chase that concluded in College Station on September 10, 2025. The incident began when the College Station Police Department (CSPD) initiated a traffic stop, but the driver fled the scene. The suspect, identified as 20-year-old Stephan Kendrick Gilbert, was apprehended after a pursuit that involved multiple law enforcement agencies.
During the chase, the Navasota Police Department (NPD) was notified about the fleeing vehicle and quickly located it. Upon checking, authorities discovered that Gilbert had two active warrants for his arrest. Despite the warnings, Gilbert fled once again, which led to a pursuit that extended into College Station.
In an effort to stop the suspect, CSPD deployed spike strips on the roadway. The chase finally came to an end around 11:20 a.m. near the Post Oak Mall. As the vehicle came to a halt, Gilbert attempted to escape on foot but was apprehended without further incident.
Gilbert faces multiple charges, including evading arrest in a vehicle, evading arrest on foot, resisting arrest, and an additional charge related to evading arrest originating from College Station. After his arrest, he was booked into the Brazos County Jail. Fortunately, no injuries were reported during the chase, which was a relief for both officers and the public.
During the investigation, a baby’s car seat was found resting on top of the suspect vehicle. However, authorities confirmed that there were no children inside the car at the time of the incident. The police pursuit temporarily closed the southbound feeder road from Harvey to Holleman Drive, but the highway has since reopened to traffic.
