I have a friend that lives near 256 & Flower Rd in Tyler County,she says she lives 3.8 miles from the main road and she lives in a double wide mobile home.She lives alone with no family or friends near her.She couldn't get out because she doesn't have a car.She has very little food.I think she isn't thinking clearly and is panic mode,she is 65 years old and has health problems.Is their anyway someone could check on her.She says she lives 3.8 miles from the main road in dlb wide mobile home.

I just want to know why nothing is ever reported on Tyler County. I understand it is outside of the Golden Triangle, but I just read reports on Nacogdoches and Angelina Counties! We watch the news and look on this website only to find that we are not of any priority!
