As Texas State students head out on Halloween, dressed head-to-toe in costume, they can expect to see San Marcos police patrolling the city's streets in full force. Police Chief Howard Williams says extra officers will be on duty that Saturday night especially on the Square, where a large number of bars are located. Chief Williams says officers will also cruise neighborhoods like Sagewood, which are dominated by college students. Police say they have received numerous noise complaints in that area due to Halloween parties in the past.
