A man with Texas warrants was arrested in Marietta, Oklahoma, early Wednesday, July 29, 2026, after Love County sheriff’s officials said he ran from deputies during a welfare check the previous afternoon. The arrest concerns Gainesville and Cooke County readers because the Love County Sheriff’s Office describes Love County as bordering Cooke County, Texas, along with Montague County.

The Love County Sheriff’s Office identified the man as Timothy Dulin. Sheriff’s officials said deputies were near Airport Road and Jacobs Road at about 12:30 p.m. Tuesday, July 28, while attempting a welfare check when Dulin fled.

The Sheriff’s Office said Dulin had full-extradition warrants from Denton, Texas. The verified records reviewed for this report do not state the underlying Texas allegation connected to those warrants.

Love County sheriff’s officials said deputies took Dulin into custody just after 2:30 a.m. Wednesday at a residence on Lou King Road in Marietta. The arrest update said officers from the Marietta Police Department assisted Love County deputies. The update did not report any further confrontation during the arrest.

The Love County jail roster lists him as Timothy Michael Dulin. The roster records a 3:15 a.m. booking on July 29 and lists the Love County charge as fugitive from justice.

That jail entry is separate from the Denton warrants cited by the Sheriff’s Office. The Love County record reviewed for this report lists the local Oklahoma booking charge; it does not list a Texas offense.

The arrest update appeared on the official Love County Sheriff’s Office page and was signed by Love County Sheriff Andy Cumberledge. The first notice about the deputies’ welfare-check contact and the later arrest update both came from Love County sheriff’s officials, according to the verified records provided for this report.

The Sheriff’s Office’s website says its staff and deputies work with neighboring law enforcement and other government agencies. In Dulin’s case, the office named Marietta police as assisting at the time of the arrest.

No verified record provided for this report shows a Cooke County arrest, a Gainesville police role or a Texas charge filed locally in connection with the Love County booking.
