On 11-22-10 at approx. 0847 I Officer R.E. Craig III, was traveling eastbound on Woodlands Parkway in a marked patrol vehicle at Grogans Mill when I observed a Black Volvo stopped in the moving lane of traffic. This vehicle was bearing TXLP# NPC233 which showed to be registered to a Tim Patton at 13236 Ridgewood Conroe, Texas 77302. I exited my patrol car to check on the occupants of the vehicle. It appeared that the front driverside tide had a flat tire. After I walked up to the vehicle I noticed that it was unoccupied. I walked back to my patrol car and asked for MCSO dispatch to have a free unit check by with me since this is in their jurisdiction. Dispatch aired for any free unit that could check by with me for this traffic hazrd. No units picked up the call. Since this was a traffic hazard and it was unoccupied I called for the first Oak Ridge wrecker to my location for a tow. AW Towing arrived on location and loaded up the vehicle. The vehicle was a 2005 Volvo 2 door black in color in fair condition towed to 8933 Tamina Rd Conroe, Texas 77385 (281)367-0095. The vehicle was towed to this location where it woill be stored abandoned until the owner to pick it up.
