🚨Media Release🚨
On June 9th, 2026 at 2:12 pm, the Conroe Police Department was dispatched to 1200 League Line Rd. (McDonald’s restaurant) in reference to an active disturbance. As patrol officers arrived, they learned that an 18-year-old male, later identified as Jeremiah Lawson, was possibly having a mental health crisis and suicidal ideations while seated in a vehicle in the parking lot of McDonald’s.

Patrol Officers established contact with Lawson and attempted to persuade him to exit the vehicle peacefully. Lawson was armed with several knives and refused officers’ commands to exit the vehicle. Due to Lawson being armed and refusing commands, the Conroe Police SWAT team was called out along with negotiators. During the standoff, Lawson was belligerent and made various “suicide by cop” statements while in communication with Officers. After a lengthy standoff, for approximately two hours, Lawson was extracted from the vehicle using less
lethal munitions and taken into custody.

Lawson was placed under an EDO (Emergency Detention Order) and transported to a local area hospital where he is currently receiving medical attention. While at the hospital, Lawson became combative and made violent threats towards Conroe Police Officers. The Montgomery County District Attorney’s Office was contacted and accepted the criminal charge of Retaliation (Felony 3) against Lawson. Once Lawson is medically cleared, he will be transported to the Montgomery County Jail.

Chief Buckholtz and the Conroe Police Department are thankful that this tense situation did not escalate further and that Lawson was taken into custody without further incident.
