Officer Miles Palmer
November 2025
This Beat is a residential area. The Beat includes Wessendorff Park, Morton Cemetery, and the Richmond Police Department. The boundaries of Beat 4 are south of Clay Street to the Union Pacific railroad tracks and east of North Tenth Street to the Brazos River.
During the month of November, I met with three residents in my Beat.
I met with James Rhoades who lives at 609 Leonard. I explained to Rhoades that I am an Officer with the Richmond Police Department and that I am the Beat Officer for Beat 4. I asked Rhoades if he had any problems in the area that he would like me to address. Rhoades stated that he did not. I provided Rhoades with a Richmond Police Department business card and ended the contact.
I met with Lee Wheels who visits family often at 810 Lettie Street. I introduced myself to Wheels and told him that I am the Beat Officer for Beat 4. I explained to Wheels what a Beat Officer does. I asked Wheels if there were any issues in the Beat that he needed me to address. Wheels stated that he did not. I provided Wheels a Richmond Police Department business card and told him to contact me if he ran into any problems.
I also met with Jason Hernandez, who lives at 822 Collins Street. I identified myself and explained to him that I am the Beat Officer for Beat 4. Hernandez stated that he did not have any issues. I provided Hernandez with a Richmond Police Department business card and told him to contact me if he ran into any problems.
I have conducted several property checks in and around Beat 4. I have conducted several traffic stops while patrolling Beat 4 and District 1. I attempted two registered sex offender checks but was unable to make contact with either subject.
