Friends, I hope you will join me in praying for our County Commissioner Bobbie Mitchell today, who lost her husband and was seriously injured in a violent incident this morning. She has faithfully served our community for many years, and she could certainly use our love and support right now. Please pray for her healing and recovery and for peace over her family.

Homicide Investigation – Springwood Drive
Report# 25-03200
Date: April 21, 2025
_________________________________________________
This morning, at approximately 3:53 a.m., Lewisville Police Department officers responded to a report of an assault in progress in the 1000 block of Springwood Drive.
Upon arrival, officers located two adult victims—a male and a female—both suffering from apparent stab wounds. The suspect, a family member of the victims, was still on scene and was immediately taken into custody without incident.
Lewisville Fire Department personnel rendered aid and transported both victims to area hospitals.
The female victim has been identified as Bobbie J. Mitchell, Denton County Commissioner for Precinct 3. Commissioner Mitchell currently serves the Lewisville area and is a prominent public servant. She is a former Lewisville City Council member and was the city’s first Black mayor, elected in 1993. She held the office until her resignation in January 2000 to run for her current county position.
Commissioner Mitchell is listed in stable condition and is being treated for stab wounds. Commissioner Mitchell’s husband, Fred Mitchell, succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced deceased shortly after 5:00 a.m.
The suspect, Mitchell Blake Reinacher, the grandson of the victims, has been booked into the Lewisville jail and is presently charged with Murder and Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon. The crime scene remains active as LPD crime scene investigators and detectives continue processing evidence and working to determine the circumstances that led to the attack.
Additional details will be released as the investigation progresses.
