After 24 years of dedicated service to the Pasadena Police Department and the citizens of Pasadena, we would like to congratulate Sergeant M. Norman on his retirement.
Sgt. Norman began his career with the Pasadena Police Department in 1999 as a graduate of the 49th Basic Police Academy. Sgt. Norman worked on patrol to start his career, where he had collateral duties in Bike Patrol, Honor Guard, and S.R.T.
In 2004, Mike was promoted to the Rank of Sergeant, where he served as a patrol and property crimes supervisor. Before finishing his career, Sgt. Norman was instrumental in creating the Drone Unit and was last assigned to the Internal Affairs Division.
Thank you, Sgt. Norman, for your many years of faithful service to our community. We wish you the best as you begin this next chapter in your life.

4) Immediately report waterline breaks to the Mayor’s Action Line at (713) 475-5555.

Hey Texans!!! Are you ready for some FOOTBALL? Practice starts next week—see you there
The peak of hurricane season is almost here. Is your emergency kit ready?
Residents are strongly encouraged to maintain a 72 hour emergency supply of water, non-perishable food, and medicine for each member of their household, including pets. Reserves should be built in advance of an emergency to ensure supplies are available – stores may run out of resources in the days leading up to a major weather event or other emergency.
Sufficient resources may not be immediately available to assist everyone negatively impacted by a disaster. Self-sufficiency for a minimum of 3 days is a consistent recommendation from all levels of government, with encouragement to store resources for longer periods. A 72 hour supply will assist your household with bridging the supply gap between the time a disaster occurs and the time additional resources arrive.
Visit www.ready.gov/kit for more information about emergency supplies that should be kept on hand.
Welcome Dobie alum, Linda Tije! Ms. Tije will be teaching Journalism and producing the Dobie Yearbook!

MAN FOUND IN POSSESSION OF NARCOTICS FOLLOWING PURSUIT On Sunday, July 30, 2023 at approximately 2:34 AM, Precinct 8 Deputy Morgan with Constable Phil Sandlin’s Office was conducting narcotic interdiction in the 10000 block of Bessemer St when he observed a white GMC pickup traveling at high rate of speed. Deputy Morgan activated his emergency equipment in attempt to initiate a traffic stop. The vehicle failed to stop and a pursuit ensued. The vehicle ultimately came to a stop in the 8300 block of Delwin St. The driver was apprehended and identified as 29 year old Francisco Javier Moreno. Deputy Morgan conducted a search and located 17 grams of Xanax, 2 ounces of marijuana, multiple THC cartridges and edibles, and individually packaged bags containing a total of 21 grams of cocaine. A further search of the vehicle yielded drug paraphernalia consistent with narcotic distribution. The Harris County District Attorney’s Office was contacted and accepted felony charges for Possession of a Controlled Substance with Intent to Deliver and Evading Arrest/Detention with Vehicle. Moreno was transported to the Harris County Joint Processing Center where his bonds were set at $25,000 for the narcotic charge and $10,000 for evading.
We want to give a BIG Texan shout-out to our very own AVID teacher extraordinaire, Ms. Alex Stashak Lee!

INTOXICATED MALE DRIVES THROUGH SECURITY CHECKPOINT AT NASA On Friday, July 29th, 2023 at approximately 2:32 AM, Precinct 8 Deputies Webber and P. Gonzales with Constable Phil Sandlin’s Office responded to a trespassing call at the Johnson Space Center in the 100 block of Second St. Deputies arrived on scene and were advised by NASA security of an intoxicated male who drove through the security checkpoint. Deputies made contact with the driver and identified him as 39 year old Kyle Matthew Berthelot. Berthelot displayed multiple signs of intoxication. Deputies administered the Standardized Field Sobriety Tests and determined the driver was unable to operate a vehicle safely. During the investigation, Berthelot became agitated and made threats to harm Deputy Webber. The Harris County District Attorney’s Office was contacted and accepted charges for Driving While Intoxicated and felony Retaliation. Berthelot was transported the Harris County Joint Processing Center where his bonds were set at $11,500 total. At the time of his arrest, Berthelot was out on bond for a DWI case that occurred in May 2023.

Our shelter is critically full and WE URGENTLY NEED YOUR HELP! 🐾
Due to the January tornado, the Pasadena Animal Shelter is operating on 15% of the space we once had. The building we are in is smaller than most of the surrounding city shelters when Pasadena’s population is considerably larger. When the space was taken away, the need did not go away. The building we are currently using has 45 built-in kennels for cats & dogs, however, just last week, we took in 149 cats and 88 dogs.
We are working very hard to save as many as we can, but the limited space has also limited our operations. But together, we can change that!
By adopting or fostering a pet, you become a hero in their lives and make a significant difference to our shelter. You provide a pet with a warm bed, a loving home, and a chance at a brighter future. It also allows our shelter to free up space, giving us the opportunity to rescue even more animals from difficult situations.
Whether you’re looking for a loyal companion or simply want to make a difference, now is the perfect time to open your heart and home to a pet.

• Want to adopt? Use this link: https://www.pasadenatx.gov/FormCenter/Animal-Adoption-and-Foster-Applications-10
Remember, ALL of our adoption fees are waived in August for the #ClearTheShelters campaign! All animals will come with at least one set of vaccines, spay/neuter, and a microchip.
Help us spread the word and find these paw-some animals their perfect match! Visit the shelter, share this post, tag your friends, and let’s continue to create a powerful community of animal lovers who want to save lives. 🐱🐶

As a department, we are always looking for new and innovative ways to serve our community.
Several members of our department recently went through the Federal Aviation’s Part 107 course and successfully completed the training to become licensed Drone Pilots. Upon hearing about this new addition to our department, the members of the Pasadena Citizens Police Academy Alumni Association (P.C.P.A.A.A.) got together and decided to raise funds and donate a drone to our department.
This drone will be used to enhance the department’s mission of safeguarding lives and property when other tools/resources are unavailable, less effective, or the mission is deemed to be exigent in nature.
We would like to convey our utmost gratitude to the members of the P.C.P.A.A.A. for their generous donation to our department and the citizens of our great city.
Yesterday afternoon, Constable Sandlin hosted a swearing-in ceremony at our Clear Lake station to formally welcome Deputy Shawn Margison.

Please join us in welcoming Deputy Margison back to the Precinct 8 family!
