Lakey Hinson was creating nonpermanent chalk art on a sidewalk in Leon Valley when he was arrested for defacing public property. Those charges have since been dropped.
This week's list of top stories reads kind of like a Mad Libs story. There's a chalk artist, an agitated so-called"lemur," a Texas drag queen and a South Texas resort owned by singer Jimmy Buffett. Rather than try to figure out the underlying theme, why don't we just let you go down the list and see what you missed. It was certainly a week of varied news that ranged from good and bad political activities in Austin , new summer entertainment options and the lingering effects of a grisly dog attack on SA's West Side.
