A search has changed direction and the search dogs have been called off in Madisonville after 6 men attempted to break in to a supermarket-- 5 of them fled on foot and one got away in a stolen patrol car.
It all happened around 4 o'clock Friday morning.
Six black males dressed in black clothes and masks were attempting to break into Godwin's Supermarket near the Wal-Mart in Madisonville and when officers arrived, the suspects ran.
A chase began, at which point one of officers left his patrol car and a suspect jumped in and drove off.
Shots were fired by authorities, but no one was injured.
The suspect in the patrol car was caught and arrested in Corsicana, but the other 5 men who fled on foot are still on the loose.
Officers believe that they may be armed and dangerous.
You're asked to take precautions in the area and if you see any suspicious behavior, call the Madison County Sheriff's Department at 936-348-2755.

to the writer about Reno 911, They must be calling your name!!!! The next time you have a problem dont call Madison county, if thats how you feel about them.
Madison County Officer and Deputies that responded to the call were doing their best to handle the situation on hand, while other counties were notified to try and locate the stolen patrol car. In response to all other bad comments, Keep your nasty comments to yourself if you dont know what really happened. To the Deputies and Officer that did respond to this robbery in progress, standing against six criminals, we are very proud to say that we are lucky to have men like you guys serving this community keeping our street safe. No matter what someone may put in this comment field, I feel like i can speak for many when i say dont let what some people say get you down, Ya'll did a great job, hold your head up high and continue to do the job that yall do so well. WE ARE PROUD OF YALL.
Did Madison County Sheriff send any deputy/deputies in persuit of this stolen vehicle. Chat on scanners were of Leon County Law Enforcement and other counties involved.
