Moments ago, the Dallas Police Department sent a note telling media types to head to its Facebook page for a very special announcement. OK. Let’s see … Ah. “Dallas Police Make Second Arrest in Biker Incident.” And by “biker incident,” of course, the DPD’s referring to the parade of motorcyclists who shut down and spray-painted N. Central Expressway on Memorial Day.

A couple of weeks back, DPD arrested 35-year-old Thomas Michael Roberts for the incident, charging him with the crime of tagging. This afternoon, 27-year-old Kenneth Ray Hernandez was arrested for his alleged involvement in the incident. He’s in the county jail on a $1,500 bond.

Says the PD, he was arrested in Grapevine “without incident” and, like Roberts, charged with violating Penal Code 28.08 – Graffiti, which, as we noted before, could land him anywhere from 180 days to two years in state jail along with a fine of up to $10,000. Says the note, this isn’t likely to be the last arrest either: “The Police Department is continuing the investigation into the incident. Social Media and tips continue to play an important part in this ongoing investigation.”
