From: March 3, 1993 Winn Parish Enterprise News-American Winn Parish Native Wounded In Waco A Winn Parish native was among the Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms agents wounded in the Waco, Texas, police siege this weekend on the stronghold of a religious cult. Walter Glen Jordan, son of Butler and Mattie Jordan, underwent surgery for a gunshot wound to the upper arm. Four federal agents were killed and another 15 wounded in a 45 minute shootout which also left ____ cult members dead. Gunfire broke out at the isolated compound of the Branch Davidians sect, about 10 miles east of Waco, when more than 100 law officers tried to arrest sect leader Vernon Howell, also known as David Koresh. Jordan worked as a deputy under Sheriff Dan Page from 1984 until 1986. Jordan, a graduate of Georgetown High School, attended NLU and received a degree in criminal justice. (Note: I am proud to say that when W. Glen Jordan began his law enforcement career with the Winn Parish Sheriff's Office in 1984, he worked under and with me and was a model law enforcement officer as well as a model citizen. He has overcome his injuries from the Branch Davidian incident and is still employed with the Bureau of ATF.)
