The father of two girls says a man broke into the family's Cockrell Hill apartment early Friday morning and touched his daughters.

The father told police and reporters that his daughters were watching TV in the front room, where they had been sleeping on a mattress, when a man entered the residence through a back window at about 5:15 a.m. Friday.

The girls said the man told them he was a friend of the family and offered to take them to the store to get candy. At some point the man began touching the girls over the clothing, and one of the girls called out to her father.

As the father came into the room, the man exited the front door. The father chased the man into the parking lot but was unable to catch him. After the man disappeared, the father called police.

The father said it was dark and all happened very fast and that he didn't get a very good look at the man, though he did provide police with a partial description. He also adds that the man, despite his claim, was not a friend of the family.

Police said the girls, ages 9 and 5, were taken to an area hospital for an evaluation. Neither were injured. Police said the man was inside the home for about 10 minutes before he was chased out.

Cockrell Hill police confirmed the man tried to get the girls to leave with him and that there was physical contact between the intruder and the girls, but that that contact was not sexual and they were not injured. Police are continuing to investigate and have classified the incident as burglary of a habitation with intent to commit another felony. The charge is a first degree felony punishable with a possible life sentence and a fine of $10,000.

The incident took place at the Cedar Square Apartments at 500 Andrews Avenue.

NBC 5's Mark Schnyder contributed to this report.

It was initially believed that the girls were sleeping at the the time the man entered the apartment, that was not the case. We regret the error.

Search Continues for Maria Arrocha

The Arrocha family's Christmas was a little less bright this year. They're still searching for 77-year-old Maria Arrocha, who suffers from Alzheimer's disease. She's been missing since Dec. 18.

Concerns Grows for Missing Arlington Woman

77-year-old Maria Arrocha suffers from Alzheimer's and she's been missing since Tuesday, her family is concerned for her safety especially with the temperatures falling at night.

More Photos and Videos

Arlington police say they have found the body of a 77-year-old woman with Alzheimer's disease who disappeared last month.

Maria Arrocha wandered out of her Arbor Lane home at New York Avenue and Park Row Lane on Dec. 18.

Arlington police found her body in a wooded area near 1500 E. Abram St. on Thursday afternoon. The Tarrant County medical examiner positively identified the woman as Arrocha on Friday.

Her death was determined to be caused by exposure to the elements.

Martin Arrocha, her son, said he had mixed emotions, saying he was "a little bit angry because we couldn't find her in time, relief because we know she's in a better place today."

Police officers were working closely with volunteer group Search One Rescue Team, which uses K-9s, as part of an ongoing effort to find Maria Arrocha when her body was discovered.

Her family had been searching for Arrocha since her disappearance. They passed out fliers in both English and Spanish throughout North Texas and spent Christmas looking for her.

TxDOT Crews on Standby for Winter Weather

Highway crews are on alert to respond if necessary, especially in the counties to the south and west of the Metroplex.

More Photos and Videos

We are watching a major winter storm in West Texas. Heavy snow is likely from San Angelo, Midland and Odessa west through the mountains to El Paso.

Here in the Metroplex the air remains very dry, so any precipitation here will be very light. Expect a mixture of sprinkles, snowflakes, snow grains and perhaps a few sleet pellets, but with no accumulation locally.

Most of the precipitation will evaporate before reaching the ground across the Metroplex -- but there could be a dusting to perhaps 1/2 inch of snow to the southwest (around Stephenville, Comanche, Hamilton, Brownwood), and a Winter Weather Advisory has been issued for that area.

Any wintry weather that develops in North Texas will end Friday morning. The weekend will be clearing and dry.

NBC 5 FORECAST

TONIGHT: Increasing clouds this evening. Very light rain and a few snow flurries will be possible before sunrise. Low: 32. Wind: N 5 mph.
FRIDAY: Cloudy and cold with a mix of sprinkles and a few snowflakes and/or sleet pellets early in the morning. Cloudy and cool during the afternoon. High: 43. Wind: SE 5 mph.
SATURDAY: Mostly cloudy and chilly in the morning, but sunny by afternoon. Low: 36. High: 56. Wind: S 10 mph.
SUNDAY: Sunny and mild. Low: 34. High: 51. Wind: N 10 mph.
MONDAY: Sunny and a little warmer. Low: 33. High: 55. Wind: S 5-10 mph.

Hurst Officer Fired After "Embarrassing" Video

Click Here!

Teen Files Complaint in Hurst Officer Video

The family of Andrew Rodriguez filed a complaint against the Hurst police officer they say used excessive force violating the teen's civil rights in a video posted on YouTube.

Mother Wants Hurst Police Officer's Badge

The mother of 17-year-old seen in a YouTube video being kneed in the back and cursed at by a Hurst police officer says she wants the officer fired and charged with aggravated asault.

More Photos and Videos

Hurst police officer Disraeli Arnold has been fired after being recorded on video threatening a teen and using profane language.

Arnold was recorded in November running to assist an officer subduing a teenager and ultimately kneeing the teen in the back of the head while yelling and threatening him.

The teen's mother, Kelly Pope, didn't object to her son being arrested, just the force used to take the teen into custody.

"He [her son] knows that he handled it badly at first, that he should have been a little more cooperative. But, you know, the second officer -- there was no reason for it," Pope said in November. "He (Arnold) comes up at a jolting sprint, kneed him in the back of the head and, as you can see on the video, he says, 'If you move I'm going to [expletive] kill you.'"

While the teen was in custody and being escorted to a police car, Arnold then paraded in front of the teen's friend, who was recording the arrest, and said, "You got it on tape? Arnold, 654!"

Using the video as evidence, the teen's mother filed a complaint with the Hurst Police Department that led to an internal affairs investigation. The mother said she hoped the officer would either turn in his badge or be fired.

Dashcam video released several days later showed the teen, prior to Arnold arriving at the scene, arguing with Officer Miguel Jimenez and resisting arrest -- a offense for which he was charged.

On Thursday, Hurst police said Arnold was "indefinitely suspended for violations of Hurst Police Department General Orders and Civil Service rules relating to his actions on Nov. 20, 2012" and "an internal affairs investigation was conducted for violations ... to include the unnecessary use of force, being disrespectful to a citizen, and the use of indecent, profane, or harsh language in the performance of official duties."

Despite Pope's claim of excessive force, the internal affairs investigation determined the amount of force used by Arnold was reasonable since he believed Jimenez was struggling to subdue the teen.

The investigation did find, however, that Arnold was disrespectful to a citizen and "used indecent, profane, and harsh language in the performance of his official duties, and conducted himself in a manner which brought discredit to himself and the Hurst Police Department."

"You can't help but be embarrassed -- not only for the officers that work in our department, but for anybody in the law enforcement profession," Hurst Assistant Chief Steve Niekamp said in November. "You just expect when an officer shows up, they're going to be in charge. You don't want the foul language, anything that looks like it might be overreaction. You just want to be professional, calm and in control of the scene."

Prior to the department's latest ruling, Arnold had been placed on administrative leave.

Arnold had been with the department for four years and, according to a performance assessment and disciplinary file released by Hurst police after the incident, he met or exceeded police standards in nearly every assessment. The document also noted in May, 2010, that "Officer Arnold's enthusiasm may make him overzealous at times, which can cloud his judgment when it comes to policy, procedure and tactics. Sometimes he needs to step back and see the big picture and risks involved."

Arnold has 10 days to appeal the termination.

An equipment failure left more than 700 customers without power in Dallas on Wednesday night, forcing the Perot Museum of Nature and Science to close early.

Oncor Electric Delivery spokeswoman Jeamy Molina said the first reports of the outage came just before 6 p.m.

The outage darkened 26 of the 31 apartment buildings in a nearby complex.

Becky Mayad, a spokeswoman for the museum, said people who were forced to leave early because of the power problem can use their tickets another day or get a refund by sending an email to info@perotmuseum.org.

Power was restored just after 830 p.m.

Tyler Dumar and Joanie Swearingen both live in a nearby complex that was without power for hours. Swearingen made a trip to Target to buy candles to light up her apartment.

Dumar was readying for a night without a heater.

"We're probably going to just get every blanket that we can and from everywhere we can find and probably just bundle up," he said.

Lewisville Police Investigate Sexual Assault

Lewisville police are looking for two men who sexually assaulted a woman at L.L. Woods Park on New Year's Eve.

Lewisville police are looking for two men who sexually assaulted a 32-year-old woman on New Year's Eve.

Investigators said the woman was jogging at approximately 7:30 p.m. at L.L. Woods Park in the 1000 block of Arbour Way.

The two men hid behind a tree and confronted the woman when she ran past them, police said. Investigators said she tried to fight off the men but failed and was knocked unconscious. The men dragged the woman away from the jogging trail and sexually assaulted her.

Lewisville police say it's unusual and extremely dangerous for two men to be working together.

"This is the first one that we know of that has occurred like this," Capt. Kevin Deaver said.

"It's somewhat unusual that there were two attackers. That's real unusual for this type of offense, so that's something that's alarming and that's why we're reaching out to the public," he said.

Anyone with information on this crime is urged to contact Lewisville Police at 972-219-TIPS (8477) or Denton County Crime Stoppers at 800-388-TIPS (8477).

Victim's Mother: Officers Should Be Fired Over DWI

Click Here!

A woman whose daughter was killed by a drunken Fort Worth police detective three years ago says the department hasn't learned its lesson after yet another officer was arrested Wednesday on suspicion of drunken driving.

"It's been three years ago in December," Stella Lopez said. "That should have been a wake-up call."

Her daughter, Sonia Baker, was killed in December 2009 when Officer Jesus Cisneros' car slammed into hers.

Cisneros was convicted of intoxication manslaughter and sentenced to 20 years in prison. He was on his way home after drinking with other officers at a Fort Worth bar, police acknowledged at the time.

After the tragedy, Police Chief Jeffrey Halstead ordered the entire department to undergo alcohol awareness training.

Early Wednesday morning, Nicolas Ramirez, a Fort Worth DWI enforcement officer, was arrested in Westlake on a DWI charge. Blood alcohol tests showed he had drank more than twice the legal limit.

Nearly 20 Fort Worth officers have been arrested in drunken-driving cases in the past four years.

Ramirez's arrest follows the DWI arrest of Maj. Paul Henderson last month in Parker County. Henderson was Halstead's chief of staff and had spoken out against drunken driving in the past.

Henderson was demoted but still works for the department. His criminal charges are still pending.

"What is it going to take? Police officer after police officer after police officer," Lopez said. "What is it going to take?"

Lopez said Halstead should fire officers for drunken driving instead of reprimanding them.

"Halstead needs to change the rules," she said. "He needs to fire these people (so they) know what it feels like to lose your job because of the almighty alcohol."

Halstead declined to comment Wednesday but has said he judges each case individually.

In a written statement after Ramirez's arrest, Halstead apologized.

"It is extremely troubling that one of our police officers, especially a DWI enforcement officer, has been arrested in this manner," he said.

Halstead promised the matter "will be handled expeditiously."

Lopez acknowledged that Halstead can't be a babysitter for every officer but said drunken-driving convictions should lead to automatic termination.

"Police officers, of all people, are out there teaching us, teaching our young kids to trust them," she said. "And this happens? Who are we to trust?"

Family and friends are mourning the sudden death of a 17-year-old high school student.

Max Schwolert, a senior at Flower Mound Marcus High School, died the day after Christmas during a family vacation in Minnesota.

Schwolert had to be admitted to a hospital there with complications from the flu.

"It started out as the flu, then went to pneumonia and a staph infection on top of that, so those three things combined and just took over very quickly," said Michelle Schwolert, his aunt.

She described her nephew as the picture of health -- 6 feet 4 inches tall, young and athletic.

"He was a healthy child," she said. "You can't beat yourself up. How many times has your child had a cold and you just wait it out?"

Friends have been leaving tributes to Max Schwolert at Faith Lutheran Church, where his father is the youth ministry director.

"It's really hard. He was so young and just a really great kid," church member Sarah Wagner said.

"It kind of left me speechless," said her husband, Coleman Wagner. "I wish I had better words to describe it. Knowing how I feel, I can't imagine how Max's family feels right now."

The Schwolert family said he did not have a flu shot this year. While they don't know if it could have saved his life, they are advocating that everyone get one in light of his death.

North Texans Resolve to Hit the Gym

Some Dallas residents hit the gym Tuesday to get a head start on their New Year resolutions.

Alex Landin didn't waste a minute starting the year off on the right foot -- at Gold's Gym in Uptown.

"Whatever you do on the first day of the year, you'll be doing that for the rest of the year, so I want to get in shape for the rest of the year," he said.

The 36-year-old has a simple resolution -- shed the extra pounds he put on in the past few years.

"I'm getting older -- proud of it, though -- and so I said no more excuses; this is the year I want to go back on top again," Landin said.

Others are joining health clubs for the first time.

Dallas newcomer Larissa Aulov and nearly two dozen others joined LA fitness on Skillman Street.

"We had a heavy meal yesterday and it's a good time to come and just burn some calories," Auloy said. "It's a good time of the day, and it's a good beginning for the New Year."

Losing weight and getting fit is one of the most popular resolutions year after year -- but it's also one of the most often broken.

"Just set short-term goals and make sure that ... you don't have the expectations of making instant results," said Elizabeth Spence, Gold-s Gym personal trainer.

"Most people set their expectations too high at first, but if you set small goals and reach those goals first, you'll be more likely to continue," she said.

Landin said he knows it will take time but has a simple goal.

"I like to eat, so I'll be happy with a four-pack," he said.

AA Flight Attendants Poised to Approve Merger Plan

Click Here!

Just days after American Airlines' pilots signed off on a merger plan with US Airways, flight attendants appear poised to approve their own deal.

"A merger is the best thing for the company, the unions and the passengers," Association of Professional Flight Attendants president Laura Glading said late Tuesday. "It has to happen."

Glading said she would probably recommend that her union approve a "memorandum of understanding" soon. The deal is essentially an integration plan with their counterparts at US Airways.

A merger between the two carriers – which would create the world's largest airline -- appears more likely than ever, analysts say, even as other major obstacles remain.

"It's going to be extremely interesting," said airline analyst Denny Kelly. "The main reason there will be a merger is they have to merge. They don't have any choice. American is going to find it extremely difficult to compete with Delta and United."

Fort Worth-based American has been mired in bankruptcy for more than a year. Airline executives have said they are studying a merger with US Airways or possibly another airline. But it's unclear whether it would happen before or after the airline emerges from bankruptcy.

The board of directors of American's parent company, AMR Corp., is set to meet Jan. 9.

The Allied Pilots Association approved a merger deal on Saturday. Pilots at US Airways are expected to consider the proposal in the next few days.

Kelly said combining large workforces is always full of pitfalls.

""There are going to be people who aren't going to like it," he said.

Another question is: Who will control a combined airline?

Analysts say US Airways' CEO Doug Parker would likely take the reins if the deal goes through soon.

But American CEO Tom Horton's odds could go up if the process drags on.

"He wants to run the world's largest airline. And at the minimum, he probably wants to be the head of American if they can come out of bankruptcy alone, without the merger," Kelly said.

American issued a statement on Saturday saying it remains "actively engaged" in merger talks but stressed that no final decision has been made.

"We remain committed in our efforts to secure the best outcome for our financial stakeholders, our people and our customers," spokesman Mike Trevino said.

Garland firefighters are working around the clock to raise money for one of their own who was injured in a car crash that may have left him paralyzed for life.

Devon Colbert, 28, may not walk again after a car crashed into his vehicle on Dec. 17 in Rockwall. His 2-year-old son was also strapped into the car but was not hurt.

Emily Colbert watched her husband follow his lifelong passion to become a firefighter, only to have the unexpected setback thrown in their path.

"It breaks my heart," she said. "It breaks my heart, because I know how hard he worked to get where he is. I know how hard we've worked as a family to get where he is."

The Garland Fire Department has been working to raise money for her and their two young boys, covering shifts and making 24-hour visiting rounds at the Baylor Institute for Rehabilitation.

"If it wasn't for our faith, we would be on the ground," Emily Colbert said. "If it wasn't for our extended fire family and family coming and picking us up, I don't know how we would be making it."

"He would do the same for me in a heartbeat," said Ross Dyer, who filled in for Colbert on his New Year's Eve shift. "He would do the same for anybody in this department."

Devon Colbert has been working at the Garland Fire Station No. 7 for the past year, but it took him nearly seven years just to get a job in the department. Before, he was a volunteer with the Rockwall Fire Department.

"He is so thankful to have this job," firefighter Jerry Click said. "He gets here almost two hours early before his shift starts, and he's the last one to leave. He works nonstop."

Emily and Devon Colbert are holding onto their hope that one day he'll be back where he always wanted to be.

"He will walk again," Emily Colbert said. "I have to believe that; that's what I'm holding onto in my heart."

Oklahoma State and Purdue play in the inaugural Heart of Dallas Bowl on Tuesday. It will be the third consecutive New Year's Day game played in the historic Cotton Bowl Stadium since the namesake game moved to Cowboys Stadium.

The 2013 game features a new title sponsor, the Heart of Dallas, a new non-profit organization that works with Dallas charities.

"We're not only getting the chance to tell the city of Dallas about what we're doing here in the community but we get to tell the whole country and the world that Dallas has a heart," said Heart Dallas board member Kern Egan. "We're about our people and we're about giving back and that's what we're going to use this game for."

The proceeds from Tuesday's game will benefit charities working to end homelessness in Dallas including the Metro Dallas Homeless Alliance.

"A lot of bowl games, don't get this opportunity to help others and it's a great thing that we're helping," said Oklahoma State lineman Lane Taylor.
