Citing sources
Welcome to Wikipedia! Mr. Parker, thank you for your contributions to the Bellaire, Texas article.

Anyway, I notice this edit here that gives additional information on the Cruz case. However, you need to cite additional sources, because the Houston Chronicle article I cited does not state this information.

The Houston Chronicle article states: "Jose Cruz Jr., a former Bellaire High School and Rice University baseball standout and son of the one-time Astros star hitter, told a Houston television station last week that he, too, had been stopped by Bellaire police as an adult in 2002, an incident he said prompted him to move from his old hometown.

He said he was in a new car with his pregnant wife when a police officer stopped him because of an absent front license plate. He said he believed he was racially profiled.

``The officer proceeded to arrest me,'' Cruz told KHOU-TV (Channel 11). ``He told me that there were warrants out for my arrest. I told him that I didn't have so much as a ticket, much less a warrant.''

Because of the mistake, Cruz said, he ended up spending the night in jail. "

If there is another source that states that another law enforcement agency did have a warrant for Cruz's arrest, then please provide that source.
