July 2026

Beat 9 is predominantly a residential area, with mostly single-family residences. There are two apartment complexes and an elementary school within Beat 9. The boundaries of Beat 9 are the BNSF railroad tracks along the eastern side, the Rosenberg city limits along the northern and western side, and FM 1640 along the southern side. This area is commonly known as Lamar Estates. 

During the month of July, I met a group of juveniles in my Beat. The juveniles then wanted to play basketball at Deaf Smith Elementary, so I joined them for a little while. Another officer stopped by and interacted with them as well. The kids said they often play basketball together since they live in the area.

Later on, while patrolling an apartment complex, I met with Juan. He advised that he does not have any issues and has only been living in the area for about 3 months. I provided him with my contact, and he advised that he would reach out if he needed assistance.

I then met Ana, who stated she likes the area where she lives, and she keeps to herself most of the time. Ana said she doesn’t have issues, and her neighbors are friendly. Ana did say she thinks Lamar Drive is dark at night, especially in the Crestwood area. She also said she doesn’t like people who hang out at JB Food Mart on the weekend to drink or just stand around, since there is a lot of foot traffic. I advised her we would check the area at night since we have received complaints about them.

I also interacted with some juveniles at George Park; they were interested in knowing about law enforcement and wanted stickers to show their parents.

I do not have any Registered Sex offenders in my Beat.

Goals Accomplished:

This month was very eventful; I learned a lot, and I hope to use that knowledge to good effect. I also had a lot of training, which was useful to me in learning new things about the field.

Goals Next Month:

I want to interact with the community's youth and make more contacts this upcoming month.
