MIDLAND — The City of Mid
land isn’t exactly your basic armed
robbery haven.
In fact, Midland recorded one of
the lowest armed robbery rates for
any community its size in the state
during 1984.
But that didn’t deter some armed
robbbers from trying their luck in
July and August, 1984.
Two Midland motels were victim
ized by the robbers. On July 29,
around 1:20 a.m., a black male and
female robbed the Lexington motel,
while an accomplice waited in a vehi
cle outside. They escaped with about
$100 in cash from the motel’s cash
register and another $100 from the
night manager’s wallet.
Then on August 4, the Best West
ern Motel was robbed. This time a
lone black gunman escaped with
$251 in cash after locking the night
manager in a storage room.
However, within two weeks of the
second robbery. Midland police
were hot on the trail of the suspects.

Two of them were arrested and
eventually convicted of aggravated
robbery.
However, the main suspect in the
robberies — Demetrius Lavern El
kins — remains on the run.
Elkins, 30, 5-10, 165 pounds, with
black hair and brown eyes, is wanted
on two counts of aggravated robbery
in Midland. Detectives in nearby
Odessa also want to talk to Elkins
This week Elkins has been added
to the Texas Most Wanted list. A re
ward of up to $1,000 is being of
fered for information leading to his
capture.
Law enforcement officials stress
that Elkins is considered armed and
dangerous. Citizens with informa
tion about his location arf asked to
call the Texas Crime Stoppers Advi
sory Council toll-free at 1-800-252-

Farmers, ranchers fearing floods
oppose cloud seeding program
Associated Press
AUSTIN — Residents of the
drought-prone Hill Country urged
the Texas Water Commission Mon
day to prevent a cloud-seeding pro
gram designed to produce water for
San Antonio.
The Edwards Underground Wa
ter District wants to make it rain on
Medina, Real, Uvalde, Edwards,
Kinney, Kerr and Bandera counties
to recharge the aquifer.
Attorney Robert Gulley, rep
resenting the water district, says the
seeding would “not cause Hooding in
the area and will not contribute to
the severity of flooding in the area.”
tagei
Fox says the program could increase
rainfall 15 percent.
Hill Country farmers and ranch
ers and the city of Kerrville oppose
the program. The city is concerned
that heavy rains could further dam
age the Guadalupe River Dam,
wnich has been damaged by flood
ing this year.
Gulley says no seeding would be
done on clouds that could produce
more than an inch of rain per hour.
Heavy rains do little to recharge the
underground water supply, he says.
Slow, consistent rain seeps into the
aquifer.
