Georgetown police: Man started fire, tried to flee before his arrest

Silvestre Franco-Luviano has been taken custody, Georgetown Police Chief Wayne Nero said.

Police received reports that Franco-Luviano, 40, was at an apartment unit in the 2100 block of North Austin Avenue in Georgetown. Relatives of Franco-Luviano live at the unit, but he was alone at the time of the incident.

A SWAT team was about to begin negotiating with Franco-Luviano when a small fire broke out at the apartment, police said. Nero said Franco-Luviano started the fire and then broke a wall to escape into the adjacent apartment unit, which was empty because the complex had been previously evacuated.

Franco-Luviano tried to escape on foot but he was tackled and captured by members of the SWAT team, Nero said. He was in police custody about 7:30 p.m., Nero said.

1. And for him, a carcel Norteamericano

And for that scum-bag, I hope that the investigators do an adequate job and send him to the state slammer where he can remain for the rest of his days.
