April 2026

Beat 2 is also known as “Brazos Terrace Subdivision” and it is located in the north side of the City of Richmond. The boundary lines are west of Collins, South of Pink Blvd., north of the Union Pacific Railroad, and east of the Richmond State School (which is outside the City Limits and Beat 2). Beat 2 is mainly a residential area, working class family residences mixed with several single wide mobile home parks. Within Beat 2 are Pink Elementary (Lamar Consolidated School District) and Baker-Rilley preschool. There is a convenience store located at 611 Pultar and a gas station/convenience store at 205 Collins Road. Beat 2 is home to three apartment complexes, 1930 Rocky Falls, 2020 Rocky Falls and 1001 Pultar Road.

During the month of April I met 3 new residents of beat two. I met Jose Luis Panera and his neighbor Esperanza Rios who reside in the mobile home park located on Gammon Ave. I spoke with both residents, in Spanish, about the difference between the laws of Texas and the laws of their native countries, specially about the Fourth Amendment of the US Constitution. I also met Maria Romero, who also resides on Gammon Ave. Ms. Romera shared with me that she had been residing in Richmond for the last 22 years and that Richmond is a great place to raise a family.

 Goals Accomplished:

Conduct registered sex offenders checks within beat two and also meet new residents.

During the month of April, I did not observe any major issues in my beat. I conducted multiple business and property checks in my beat during the nighttime hours, making sure business and properties where properly secured. Due to the new gas station/ convenience store being built in beat 2, extra patrols have been conducted in the area to deter theft.

For the month of April, I would like to spotlight a local business known as Craveway addressed as 1515 Preston St. Craveway is a gas station/ convenience store which brings a fresh new look to the North side of Richmond. A quick stop and shop, with a clean environment. Your time is valuable to them, where they always have a great attitude and they really understand the community they also serve.

During the month of April, I met three (3) residents. I spoke with Victoria, Brandon, and Cecilio.

I spoke with Ms. Victoria. Ms. Victoria lives on N Second St. Ms. Victoria has lived in Richmond most of her life. Ms. Victoria stated she loves seeing the frequent patrols. Ms. Williams stated she does not have any concerns and is just enjoying watching the city grow.

I spoke with Mr. Brandon who has lived in the Richmond area for approximately 5 years. Mr. Brandon was out getting gas with his family at the time I was speaking with him. Mr. Brandon stated that he would always avoid the police since a young age. Mr. Brandon stated the Richmond Police Department was different, he has always had a good experience interacting with officers from the PD. Mr. Brandon did not have any concerns he would like to speak about at the moment.

I spoke with Mr. Cecilio who lives at Brazos Bend Villa. Mr. Cecilio had no concerns at this time. Mr. Cecilio stated he is also employed with the new gas station, Craveway. Mr. Cecilio stated he was proud of Richmond and how much it has improved over the years. Mr. Cecilio stated he works from 2200 until 0800 and he will always appreciate how much officer presence he sees throughout the night.

During the month, I made contact with several other residents and businesses in my beat. I advised them I was the new beat officer for the area and provided them with my business card. I advised them if they had any questions, comments or concerns to contact the Richmond Police Department. They stated they all had no concerns at this time. I did not observe any streetlights out in my beat this month.

Goals Accomplished:

I increased my officer presences in Beat 2, during the nighttime hours.

Goals Next Month:

My Goals for the month of May 2026 is continue introducing myself to residences in my assigned beat (2) and increase traffic enforcement and officer presences in my beat.
