authorities are investigating a local business for allegations related to illegally dumping chemicals or oils into a nearby storm drain.
"We’re looking for any environment crimes," said Sgt. Patrick Morrissey, from HPD’s Environmental Investigations Unit. "So, discharge to the environment, water pollution, dumpings, oil dumpings, oil infractions, things like that."According to Houston Police, they started their investigation after a whistleblower from the company contacted them with concerns. On Tuesday, they were at the business to do a search warrant.
A truck driver who frequently drives along Seamist Drive says he has worked with the company being investigated before. He says, he never noticed anything unusual.
