On March 13, 2026, at approximately 10:20 a.m., the Electra Police Department responded to a burglary call in the 500 block of N. Wilbarger.
Upon arrival, officers heard movement coming from inside the vacant residence. Officers made contact with Dan Green, who was exiting the home through a broken window. As officers gave commands, Green removed his hands from his pockets and threw an object toward a nearby wall before exiting. He was then taken into custody without further incident.
During the investigation, officers observed damage inside the residence consistent with copper wiring being removed. Green was also found to be in possession of tools commonly used to cut wiring. The object thrown by Green was later located and identified as a glass pipe containing a substance consistent with methamphetamine.
Green was arrested and charged with Burglary of a Building and Tampering with or Fabricating Physical Evidence.
The Electra Police Department would like to thank the Wichita County Sheriff’s Office for their assistance and backup during the incident. We appreciate the continued cooperation between our agencies as we work together to keep our community safe.
Let this serve as a reminder: if you commit a crime in Electra, you will be caught, you will be arrested, and you will be taken to jail.
