PPD mourns Chaplain Emeritus Roland Hill, he dedicated his life to serving others with compassion, leaving a legacy of kindness that will resonate for generations.

We’re saddened to share the passing of Chaplain Emeritus Roland Hill—a kind-hearted servant and trusted mentor whose impact will be felt for years to come.

Chaplain Hill graduated from Baylor University in 1957 and earned his Master of Divinity from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in 1962. He was ordained by the Southern Baptist Convention in 1960 and went on to serve as Associate Pastor at First Baptist Church Pasadena, a role he held for 31 years.

In 1975, he took on another calling—serving as a police chaplain. For 35 years, until his retirement in 2010, he stood alongside our officers and their families. He offered them guidance, comfort, and spiritual care during some of life’s most challenging moments.

Above all else, Chaplain Hill had a genuine love for people. He never thought twice about sitting with someone in pain, listening with compassion, or simply being there when there was nothing to say. He saw it as an honor to walk with others through grief, loss, and uncertainty, always showing up with quiet strength, compassion, and prayer.

His ministry spanned over five decades and was marked by humility, wisdom, and a steady devotion to others. Chaplain Hill didn’t seek attention—he simply showed up, over and over again, with a servant’s heart.

We’re grateful for his many years of service, and we’ll carry his example with us. He made a difference in so many lives, and people like him aren’t easily forgotten—his kindness and steady presence will stick with us.

Precinct 8 Deputy Bullock tackled a peculiar case of a New Jersey 🤡 using a fake Texas ID to swipe a credit card.

On July 25, 2025, Deputy A. Bullock was dispatched to a suspicious person located at the 19400 Gulf Freeway. Deputy Bullock made contact with the Reportee who stated that a male was attempting to open a credit card with a potentially fraudulent Texas Driver’s License. The Reportee stated that the Texas Driver’s License was observed to have discrepancies. The Reportee further stated that upon entering the information into the store database, it was flagged as fraudulent by the company’s fake ID detection system.

Deputy Bullock made contact with the suspicious person, who would later be identified as 29 year-old Olabode Emmanuel Olaseinde, of New Jersey. Through Deputy Bullock’s investigation it revealed the fraudulent Texas Driver’s License did belong to a real person with the same Driver’s License name and number. The victim was contacted and confirmed that he did not know or give permission to Olaseinde to use his personal identifying information and wanted to pursue charges.

The Harris County District Attorney’s Office was contacted, and the felony charge of Fraudulent Use of Identifying information was accepted. Olaseinde was transported to JPC where he was booked in without incident. A criminal background check of Olaseinde revealed he has been arrested several times in various states for Fraud related charges.

Precinct 2’s disturbance call led to a foot chase and felony arrests for a 🤡 in East Baton Rouge Parish but Jadeis is still hiding.

UPDATE: Disturbance Call Leads to Felony Arrest and Active Warrant

On July 15, we posted about a disturbance call where deputies with Harris County Constable Precinct 2 responded to what was initially believed to be an active weapons disturbance. Upon arrival, deputies determined the incident involved a verbal altercation between two customers and a store clerk—not a weapons disturbance.

While still on scene, the suspects returned. As deputies attempted to investigate, both individuals fled on foot, leading to a short pursuit. The suspects entered a vehicle and continued fleeing the area. Deputies obtained the vehicle’s license plate and quickly began follow-up investigations.

Through these efforts, one suspect was identified as Jadeis Gray. Later that same day, the male suspect was identified as Tyrese Terrell White, who was found to have an open felony warrant out of Plaquemine, Louisiana.

Deputies contacted the Harris County District Attorney’s Office, which accepted charges of:

Felony Evading in a Motor Vehicle for Tyrese White

Misdemeanor Evading on Foot for Jadeis Gray

Warrants were filed for both individuals.

This morning, our office was informed that the suspect vehicle was spotted in East Baton Rouge Parish, Louisiana last night. Deputies there attempted to stop the vehicle, but White once again fled. He was ultimately taken into custody by East Baton Rouge Sheriff’s deputies and now faces new charges of Home Invasion and Resisting Arrest, in addition to the active warrants.

We want to thank the deputies with East Baton Rouge Parish for their outstanding work and coordination in helping us capture White. Your partnership is greatly appreciated!

Jadeis Gray is still wanted and remains at large. If you have any information on her whereabouts, please contact our dispatch at 713-477-4070.

Thank you to all who support us in keeping our communities safe. 💙

After nearly two years in a tent, a resilient woman finally received the compassionate help from Precinct 2 she needed to seek a safer future ahead.

HOMELESS FEMALE RECEIVES THE HELP SHE NEEDS

Precinct 2 Constable Jerry Garcia’s Office received information about an adult displaced female living alongside the feeder road near the 13000 block of East Freeway. Councilman Fred Flickinger’s Office reached out and asked our office to look into the matter. Pct. 2 patrol deputies arrived at the location and immediately began to assess the living conditions.

The female lived inside a makeshift tent for nearly two years, and despite the recent warm weather, last year’s freezing conditions, she never left this location. Deputies gained the trust of this lively woman, who showed physical signs in need of medical attention. Deputies acted quickly and notified Houston EMS. Deputies also determined signs of mental health concerns were present and assured her that deputies would remain by her side to see that she received the help she needed. She was transported to a nearby hospital. An emergency detention order for mental health was completed and submitted at the hospital.

Our office will do our very best to follow developments of this matter in hopes that the situation does not repeat itself. Thank you, everyone. Please be safe, and God bless!

Summer is winding down and as the first day of school quickly approaches, we can’t help but reflect on the fun memories we’ve had. We are endlessly fortunate to host our camp every June, giving children from our community the opportunity to connect with our officers in a fun and carefree environment. Our campers receive important lessons from various first responders, learning about fire safety and medical response, as well as seeing presentations from several police auxiliary units.

Pasadena ISD is always a huge supporter, this year allowing us to use Mae Smythe Elementary School as the home base for our activities. From there, we ventured out into the community to bowl, roller skate, bounce and explore at several wonderful venues in the area.

None of this would be possible without all of our generous and supportive sponsors. We truly could not manage such a big and important project without your continued backing.

A vigilant citizen spotted a suspicious individual, leading Precinct 2 Deputies to uncover 14 open warrants.

Suspicious Person Call Leads to Warrant Arrest

A concerned citizen contacted our office about a suspicious person behind a business in the 18100 block of the Gulf Freeway. Deputies with Harris County Constable Precinct 2 responded promptly and located a male individual who was unhoused.

While deputies offered assistance — which the male declined — they proceeded to identify him. It was then discovered that he had 14 open warrants issued by Harris County Constable Precinct 8.

The male was safely taken into custody for the open warrants and transported to the Harris County Jail.

Another wanted individual off the streets — thanks to the quick action of our deputies and the vigilance of our community.

This year, over 80 officers transformed into a united team during Pasadena’s inaugural Special Response Group training week, mastering skills together.

Earlier this year, the Pasadena Police Department was proud to host our first Special Response Group basic training school. The week-long course, which was attended by over 80 officers from 13 agencies, was both physically and mentally taxing. Officers were challenged to think critically in large, group event scenarios, while learning to work alongside assets like mounted patrol. Participants learned about new equipment, moving in formation and a type of situational awareness that is quite different than what is typically experienced on patrol. The name of the game was teamwork and, while they may have started the week as 13 different agencies, they ended it as one united front.

We would like to extend our gratitude to the countless instructors from various agencies who helped make this school a success. The participants are not the only ones who walked away from this school with newfound skills and knowledge.

After months of sweat and determination, PPD’s Cadet Class 88 is ready to embrace their future in law enforcement during last weeks graduation ceremony.

It’s been a long and grueling journey, filled with sweat, growth and tenacity and today, it finally comes to an end. Cadet class 88 will walk across the stage this evening and take the next steps along their journey to a career in law enforcement.

Anxiously anticipating this day for months now, these last few hours are filled with a whirlwind of emotions; joy, relief, excitement, trepidation and even a healthy dose of fear. They have come so far, and yet, they still have so much further to go. In the coming months, we will watch class 88 transition from cadets to probationary officers, who still have a great deal of challenges and training to endure. At the end of it all, they will have earned their spot in an agency that will support them through a long and successful career.

We hope everyone has been following along with our series “Cadet Watch” which has given the community the unique opportunity to know and support this academy class. If you need to catch up on their journey, check by our Facebook page, where we have the first three episodes already posted.

This week, Bubba’s 33 served up brunch, showering first responders with warmth, gratitude, and a feast fit for champions.

Earlier this week, Bubba’s 33 hosted a heartfelt brunch for our officers, medics, and first responders—with a special thank you for those who responded to the recent incident at their location. In the days following such a difficult and emotional event, they’re still processing and trying to make sense of what happened but they’re also showing up and standing strong. They chose to show appreciation in the way they know best: with warm food, open arms, and continued camaraderie.

And boy, did they go all out! From biscuits and gravy to French toast, bacon, eggs, juice, and coffee—everything was made with care and it showed. The food was incredible (yes, a few of us went back for seconds), but more than that, the atmosphere was filled with gratitude, support, and solidarity.

Bubba’s 33 has always stood behind our department, consistently recognizing officers of the week, handing out dinner-for-two gift cards and often, just checking in to see how they can help. This brunch carried a more somber but more powerful tone, feeling especially meaningful. They reminded us that we’re not alone, and we want them to know, neither are they.

We’re proud to stand with Bubba’s 33, just as they’ve always stood with us.

In a remarkable display of teamwork, Constable Deputies and Detectives swiftly captured Gregory Dominguez a sexual predator.

CONSTABLE DEPUTIES AND DETECTIVES’ INVESTIGATION LEADS TO AN ARREST OF A SEXUAL PREDATOR
In June deputies with Constable Jerry Garcia’s Patrol Division were dispatched to a report of a possible sexual assault. Over the next month deputies with both Patrol and the newly formed Detective Positions began to investigate. During this investigation deputies and detectives were able to gather enough evidence for felony charges of Indecency with a Child to be accepted. A warrant was filed and once in hand turned over to Constable Garcia’s Special Operations Unit.
On Thursday July 10, 2025 the Special Operations Unit was able to locate 52 year old Gregory Dominguez and take him into custody without incident for his Felony Indecency with a Child Warrant.
Overall, this case is a testament to the deputies Precinct 2 Constables Office has. From the initial report and start of this investigation by Patrol, the follow ups completed by our Detectives, and the successful Warrant Service by our Special Operations Unit this case shows what a collaborative operation can result in. Please stay safe and God Bless.

PPD celebrating Officer Brian Kelldorf Sr.’s retirement after decades of service, dedication, and unforgettable adventures in policing and teaching.

Please join us in congratulating Officer Brian Kelldorf Sr. on his retirement!

Brian Kelldorf Sr. was born in September 1965, in Memphis, TN, and later moved to Houston, TX in 1968. He graduated from North Shore High School in 1985 and eventually found himself in Pasadena, TX, where he joined the Pasadena Police Academy’s 46th class on March 4, 1996.

Officer Kelldorf worked his first 4 years on Night Shift Patrol before moving to Day Shift Patrol in 2000. He became CIT (Crisis Intervention Training) certified and went on to teach CIT at the Houston Police Academy, working alongside Director Moira Delgado from MHMR (Harris County Mental Health and Mental Retardation).

After a brief stay at the Academy, he transferred to the Computer Division, where he spent the next few years doing computer and radio support. Just before the new police station opened, he transferred back to patrol and then moved to the Property Room, where he helped with the transition to the new facility. Officer Kelldorf ultimately finished his career working Day Shift Patrol.

Officer Kelldorf is a recipient of The 100 Club Award for saving a drowning child. He has also been named Officer of the Week by Houston radio station 93Q and Officer of the Month by the Pasadena Chamber of Commerce. He has received a Meritorious Service Ribbon, Dayshift Unit Citation, and Community Impact Award from various department Chiefs.

Despite his love for this career, Brian has been planning and looking forward to retirement, preparing to celebrate life with family and friends. Brian and his wife have plans to relax on cruises and travel to see various parts of the world.

On July 11, 2025, around 8:13 p.m., multiple 911 calls reported a shooting at Bubba’s 33, located at 3221 Beltway 8 Hwy NB.

Because of your continued generosity toward the Assist the Officer Fund, we’re able to provide much-needed assistance to our officers and civilian staff during some of life’s most difficult moments—whether it’s a serious injury, a critical illness, or a crisis that takes them away from work.

Meet Pasadena’s new Chief of Police, M.P. Jackson, a dedicated leader whose impressive career spans over four decades in law enforcement.

In recognition of his new appointment, we wanted to help the public become better acquainted with Pasadena Police Department’s new Chief of Police, M.P. Jackson.

Chief Jackson began his law enforcement career in 1977 after completing the Texas Engineering Extension Service (TEEX) Police Academy in Baytown, Texas. He served with the University of Houston–Clear Lake Police Department for two years before applying and being accepted to the Pasadena Police Academy in 1979. Over a distinguished career spanning more than four decades, he rose through the ranks, serving in the role of Assistant Chief of Police for nearly 12 years. During that time, he held the position of Interim Chief of Police for 15 months.

Chief Jackson received an Associate’s degree in Law Enforcement and a Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice from San Jacinto College and the University of Houston-Downtown, respectively. In time, he returned to the University of Houston and completed the Certified Public Manager Program. In addition to traditional academia, Chief Jackson is also a graduate of the FBI National Academy (Session 227), the Law Enforcement Management Institute of Texas/Leadership and Command College, and received the FBI-LEEDA Trilogy Award.

During his tenure, Chief Jackson helped secure over $850,000 in funding to strengthen department operations. This included federal stimulus funding for a Mobile Crime Scene/Command Post vehicle and technology upgrades, forfeiture assets from the Harris County District Attorney’s office for a firearms range baffling system, and HGAC funding for a SWAT armored “BearCat” vehicle. He also worked with state partners to obtain a facility for commercial vehicle enforcement. Overall, these efforts enhanced officer safety, investigative capabilities, and departmental readiness.

Chief Jackson’s leadership has been recognized with numerous honors, including the “Excellence in Leadership Award” (Pasadena Industrial Community Network), the “Community Builder Award” (Archives Lodge #1399), and multiple Chief’s Citations for high-profile investigative successes, including the resolution of nine homicide cases in 2023.

Chief Jackson’s influence extends far beyond our department. He has served on over a dozen boards and advisory councils, including the FBI Regional Computer Forensics Lab, the San Jacinto College Criminal Justice Advisory Board, and the Harris County Children’s Assessment Center. His leadership roles in education, civic service, and emergency response have had a significant impact on the community, underscoring his continued influence and dedication to public safety.

These examples represent just a few of the many contributions Chief Jackson has made over the years. Chief Jackson remains an active member of law enforcement associations at the local, state, and national levels, reflecting a lifetime of service, leadership, and dedication to public safety.

This Fourth of July, we hope you and your loved ones create joyful memories, while keeping safety front and center:
Think twice before firing a gun into the air. Every bullet must come down somewhere, and celebratory gunfire can cause serious injury, property damage, or even loss of life.
Unauthorized fireworks can spark wildfires or structure fires, cause burns, and injure bystanders.
Discharging a firearm within Pasadena city limits is a Class A misdemeanor: up to 1 year in jail and a $4,000 fine.
Possession or use of fireworks violates municipal code and can carry fines up to $2,000 plus forfeiture of the fireworks.
Enjoy the holiday responsibly and let’s make this Independence Day both safe and unforgettable for our entire community!

PPD is in contact Thaddeus Lewis who vanished from softball practices. They are now in search of parents who have been scammed by him.

**UPDATE**
We greatly appreciate the fervent response from the community and just wish to clarify about the information we are seeking in this post. We are in contact with Lewis and are not looking for help in locating him at this time. Currently, we are asking for any other persons who have fallen victim to a similar incident with Lewis, either this year or in past years, to please reach out and let Det. Satterwhite know the details of your experience.

We are seeking the public’s assistance in an ongoing investigation regarding a Facebook page setup for an 18U softball team. The coach, identified as Thaddeus Lewis, accepted fees for a softball team that he told parents would cover uniforms, practices and multiple tournaments. Following a few practices, Lewis failed to show up at or pay for any practices and tournaments. Lewis’s phone was ultimately disconnected, and the team’s Group Me was deleted, thus eliminating any communication with parents.

Based on information we have, we believe that Lewis has done the same thing in past years.

If you or someone you know has had a similar incident with Thaddeus Lewis, we encourage you to reach out to Detective Satterwhite and provide the details of your encounter.

See the attached photos of Lewis and the team logo.

As fireworks light up the sky on the Fourth of July, here’s some rules in Harris County for a safe celebration.

🎆🇺🇸 Fourth of July Fireworks: Know the Rules for Harris County, TX! 🇺🇸🎆

✅ DO buy fireworks legally — retail sales are allowed from June 24 through midnight July 4 in unincorporated Harris County.

✅ DO check your location — fireworks are illegal inside Houston and most nearby cities; only allowed in unincorporated areas.

✅ DO respect safety buffers — keep fireworks at least 600 ft from prohibited locations such as: churches, hospitals, schools, daycares, and 100 ft from gas stations, fireworks stands, or fuel storage.

✅ DO use common safety steps — light one at a time, have water nearby, supervise kids and pets, read labels.

✅ DO contact authorities — if you spot celebratory gunfire, call our dispatch (713) 477-4070

🚫 DON’T attempt fireworks in city limits — violations carry fines of $500–$2,000 per firework.

🚫 DON’T ignite fireworks near or from vehicles — it’s illegal and dangerous.

🚫 DON’T relight duds or throw fireworks in metal/glass containers — they can explode unpredictably.

🚫 DON’T let kids handle fireworks unsupervised — even sparklers burn at ~1200°F and cause many injuries.

🚫 DON’T mix fireworks with alcohol or drugs — impaired use leads to accidents.

🐾 Pet safety tip: Keep pets indoors with collars on, blinds closed, and offer comforting distractions — loud noises can disorient them.

Yesterday, PPD celebrated the extraordinary careers of Chief Jerry Wright and Detective Donna Wright, honoring their unwavering commitment to Pasadena and its community.

Yesterday, we honored the retirement of Chief Jerry Wright after 33 years of service and Detective Donna Wright with 23 years of service, marking the close of a remarkable journey with the Pasadena Police Department.

Chief Wright, a Pasadena native, began his journey as a dispatcher at just 19. Rising through every rank over 33 years, he never lost his heart for service or his commitment to community. From patrol and investigations to leading the department as Chief, his focus remained clear: reduce crime, build trust, and take care of the officers who serve. Under his leadership, morale soared, innovation thrived, and lives of many were changed for the better.

Detective Donna Wright’s public service journey began as a paramedic, where she answered critical medical calls with courage and compassion for nearly 12 years. Her path led her to Pasadena PD in 2002, and in 2005 she proudly became a Pasadena Police Officer. Donna served for seven years on Evening Shift Patrol where she honed her investigative skills and developed a passion for serving crime victims, which led her to a six year journey in the Violent Crimes Division. Detective Wright found a new meaning and purpose serving victims and their families during some of the most unimaginably difficult times of their lives. For the last seven years, Detective Wright served in the Financial Crimes Division investigating one of the fastest growing crimes in our nation. She gave a voice to countless fraud victims and brought to justice those who preyed upon them, not only in Pasadena, but across the country. And even with all of that, her insatiable dedication to service did not stop there—she was also a Crisis Negotiator, TCOLE Instructor, and Master Peace Officer.

Donna and Jerry’s stories are individually powerful—but together, they represent a legacy of dedication, teamwork, and integrity. Chief Wright and Detective Donna Wright first and foremost served their community by relentlessly pursuing justice for victims. This dynamic duo filed Harris County criminal charges on well over a thousand suspects for the most serious offenses, from crimes against children to serial aggravated robberies to homicides. They’ve both served with honor and humility, and inspired countless individuals every step of the way.

As they step into this next chapter side by side, we wish them nothing but peaceful mornings, well-earned rest, and new adventures with their family.

Thank you, Chief Wright and Detective Wright, for the extraordinary service you so freely gave to the Pasadena Police Department.

If you think your Fourth of July plans are safe. LPPD has shocking statistics that will make you rethink driving after a few drinks.

Media Relations Information for June 26, 2025
Public Relations Officer – Asst. Chief Bennie Boles
Office: 281- 842-3114

LPPD Focuses Efforts on Impaired Drivers During the Holiday

On July 4th, America celebrates the birth of our nation. Around the holiday, sadly, we often see an increase in impaired driving crashes. 2024 saw more than 1,000 drunk driving-related deaths. The July 4 holiday season had more than 5,000 DUI-related crashes, resulting in 64 deaths and over 200 injuries. That’s why TxDOT, law enforcement officials, and other key partners are working together this Fourth of July and increasing their presence across the state as part of a statewide High Visibility Enforcement effort.

Texans will notice an increased presence of law enforcement officials during the Fourth of July weekend as part of an aggressive crackdown on impaired drivers. DPS and other law enforcement agencies throughout Texas have received federal grants to increase enforcement efforts over the holiday weekend.

Tips to Celebrate Safely
• If you plan to drink, make a plan ahead of time for a sober ride home.
• Even if you’ve had only one drink, let someone who hasn’t been drinking take you home. A sober driver is one who does not drink at all, not the one who’s had the least to drink.
• If you’re hosting a Fourth of July gathering, help the designated drivers out by making sure there are plenty of non-alcoholic beverages.
• Have a friend who is about to drive impaired? Take the keys away and make arrangements to get your friend home safely.
• If you see an impaired driver on the road, safely pull over and call 911.
• Always wear your seat belt.

As an enforcement strategy, the La Porte Police Department (LPPD) is using funds through ongoing assistance from a Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) Impaired Driving Mobilization (IDM) grant. The Independence Day enforcement period is June 26 – July 13, 2025. With this grant, additional LPPD officers will be deployed during each of these holiday periods on an overtime basis, to watch for impaired drivers on local roadways. Anyone operating a vehicle and found to be intoxicated will be arrested. Suspected intoxicated drivers who refuse to provide a breath test will be the subject of a search warrant and have their blood drawn for blood alcohol level testing.

All TXDOT’s S.T.E.P. (Selective Traffic Enforcement Program) campaigns are designed to reduce both motor vehicle accidents and the residual effects incurred by impaired motorists. The programs have consistently proven to reduce injuries, fatalities, and property damage along major thoroughfares and at high-collision/high-density intersections. For more information on La Porte Police Department’s involvement in the State’s various S.T.E.P. programs, please contact LPPD at 281-842-3115 and follow us on Facebook at @LaPortePoliceDepartment.

After 33 years of selfless service and community dedication, Chief Wright has retired, leaving behind a legacy of integrity and compassion.

It is with great respect and gratitude that we announce the retirement of Chief Wright, after 33 years of dedicated service to the Pasadena Police Department. His journey is a testament to selfless service, humble heart, and relentless work ethic, which have left a lasting mark on our city.

Chief Wright, a Pasadena native, began his path right here in town, shaped by the values of hard work and compassion instilled by his family. He joined the department in 1991 as a dispatcher and graduated from the police academy in 1996. Throughout his career he embraced some of the most challenging roles, from investigating sensitive crimes against children and domestic violence to serving as a Polygraph Examiner, always displaying immense strength and determination.

Rising through the ranks to Lieutenant and then Assistant Chief, he led with integrity, overseeing critical units and mentoring countless officers. In 2023 he was appointed Chief of Police, and he immediately focused on crime suppression, strengthening community partnerships, and ensuring employee resilience. In less than two years, his initiatives produced a drop in crime rates and an increase in quality of life. He did all this while remaining a constant presence in the community; reading to children, hosting movie nights, and leading neighborhood discussions.

Perhaps his greatest legacy is the care he showed his officers. Under his leadership, recruiting, retention, and morale soared. He led with authenticity, knew his officers by name, and always supported their goals and celebrated their achievements. Chief Wright has been a true servant leader, and his legacy of integrity and compassion will forever be embedded in the fabric of the Pasadena Police Department.

We thank him for his incredible service and wish him a wonderful retirement!

After Hurricane Beryl DPPD has some tips keeping your family safe using generators.

Reminder that Deer Park received multiple carbon monoxide related fire and EMS calls following hurricane Beryl due to generator use.
Generators must be used outside, in a well-ventilated area, at least 20 feet from doors, windows and vents. Exhaust should be directed away from buildings.
Generators used in garages or placed near soffit vents, doors or windows can allow carbon monoxide to accumulate inside the house. Carbon monoxide detectors should be used when running generators.
Carbon monoxide is called the silent or invisible killer because it is colorless and odorless. Signs of carbon monoxide poisoning include shortness of breath, headache, dizziness, nausea, chest pain, confusion and/or weakness.
Call 9-1-1 if you believe you or someone else has been exposed to carbon monoxide.

PPD’s recognition of their dedicated team’s efforts making every challenge worthwhile and meaningful.

This career is not always easy and is certainly not for the faint of heart. The lows can be particularly challenging, and the positive moments often don’t receive the recognition they deserve. That’s why our department makes it a point to highlight the good—recognizing the everyday efforts of those who serve our community. Last week, we held an award ceremony to recognize key contributions within our agency, highlighting our Ramp program, which focuses on mental resilience and peer support, as well as the faith and guidance provided by our Chaplain Division and community outreach initiatives in Pasadena, such as the PACE program. Please join us in congratulating all of these individuals who come together every day for something much larger than themselves.

PPD’s Chaplain Donald Granberry, a beacon of faith and hope, his legacy will forever illuminate the hearts he touched in Pasadena.

In Loving Memory of Donald Granberry

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Pasadena Police Department Chaplain Donald Granberry.

Chaplain Granberry served as a local pastor for 35 years, beginning his preaching in 1990 and faithfully continuing his work until he was ordained in 1999 by the Assemblies of God.

From 2002 to 2014 his calling led him to Central Assembly of God Church on Crenshaw Road in Pasadena, TX where he served as the lead pastor.

While many in our department knew him through his work at local Pasadena churches, he officially joined the ranks of our Chaplain Corps in September 2017, serving our officers until his passing.

Our sincerest gratitude goes out to Chaplain Granberry for his love and commitment to our department and the entire Pasadena community. We were fortunate to have Chaplain Granberry present at our most important events and his words were always a gift of comfort, hope and strength.

He leaves behind a long legacy of service and will be greatly missed by those whose lives he touched. We extend our deepest condolences to his wife and family, as they navigate through this difficult time.

Funeral services will be held at Grace Church Houston at 14505 Gulf Freeway on Saturday, June 28th. The visitation will begin at 10:00am with services immediately following at 11:00am.

Internment will be private.

Video: Under the cover of night, oblivious 🤡’s made a questionable choice to steal a truck under PPD’s watch.

In the quiet hours of the night, when most people are dreaming of tacos and retirement, two suspects had a not so brilliant idea: steal a truck.

Little did they know that Pasadena Police Officers were already watching from above—quietly following their every (“calculated”) turn with our drone.

The suspects cruised through neighborhoods like they were headed to Waffle House on a Sunday morning, completely unaware that units were closing in faster than a dad joke at a BBQ.

But just as they were ready to vanish into the night—BAM!—lights, sirens, and officers approached in unison like your favorite 80’s band reunion tour!

The suspects were placed into custody for their unwaffle [unlawful] acts of motor vehicle theft and drug related offenses.

Kudos to night shift patrol & the Auto Crimes Unit for the remarkable teamwork that resulted in the apprehension of these suspects!

LPPD Police Briefs: From felons in traffic stops to a bizarre wheelchair assault.

(all subjects are presumed innocent until proven guilty)

• On Friday, June 6th, at approximately 1:36 AM, an Officer conducted a traffic stop in the 1900 block of S 146 for an observed traffic violation. Upon contacting the driver, the Officer immediately detected an odor of marijuana coming from the inside of the vehicle. The driver was shown to have a Felony warrant out of Galveston County for Unauthorized Use of a Motor Vehicle. There were two other occupants in the vehicle. They were removed from the vehicle so the Officer could conduct a probable cause search. During the search, the Officer located a black purse in the front passenger seat, and inside the purse, the Officer found a green leafy substance consistent with marijuana. The front seat passenger was taken into custody for possession of drug paraphernalia. The vehicle was released to the back seat passenger.

• On Friday, June 6th, at approximately 2:00 AM, Officers were dispatched to the 1200 block of S 16th for a vehicle in the ditch. Officers arrived and saw a white Jeep in the ditch, as described, with spinning wheels and the reverse lights illuminated. The driver and sole occupant exited the vehicle and was stumbling as he walked toward Officers. The driver had slurred speech, and he told Officers that he was at “The Moon,” where he consumed some alcoholic beverages before operating the vehicle. The driver refused to participate in Standardized Field Sobriety Tests and was subsequently taken into custody for suspicion of Driving While Intoxicated. During an inventory of the vehicle, Officers located a loaded handgun in the center console. The HCDAO was contacted, and a charge of Felony Driving While Intoxicated – 3rd offense was accepted. The HCDAO declined to take the charge of Unlawfully Carrying a Weapon.

• On Saturday, June 7th, at approximately 2:20 AM, an Officer initiated a traffic stop in the 3800 block of Bay Area for an observed traffic violation. Upon contact with the driver, the Officer detected a strong odor of alcohol coming from the driver’s breath. The Officer asked the driver to step out of the vehicle, and as he did, the Officer noticed the driver was unsteady on his feet. The driver admitted to drinking alcohol approximately one hour before being stopped. The driver declined to participate in Standardized Field Sobriety Tests and was subsequently taken into custody for suspicion of Driving While Intoxicated. The HCDAO was contacted, and the charge of Felony Driving While Intoxicated – 3rd offense was accepted.

• On Wednesday, July 11th, at approximately 2:05 AM, Officers were dispatched to 702 S 146 in reference to a physical disturbance. Officers arrived and met with the 65-year-old wheelchair bound victim, who told Officers he had been assaulted by a female who was still on the property. Officers located the female suspect, who told Officers the victim was being rude and disrespectful to her. She said she did not assault him and that she was simply trying to “wheel him out of the room”. The female said she had not met the victim before today. After speaking with the suspect, the victim told Officers a male subject took the suspect and him to the Scottish Hotel, and they all were staying in a room on the second floor. A verbal argument ensued between the female and the male subject. The male subject left the room, and the female turned her anger towards the victim. The victim said the female pulled him out of the room while he was in his wheelchair. During this process, the female hit the victim twice in the face with a closed fist. Officers did observe a swollen red mark on the victim’s face and a scratch on his left armpit. The victim also had half of his toenail ripped off with visible bleeding. The clerk at the hotel witnessed the incident live on surveillance cameras and confirmed the account given by the victim. The HCDAO was contacted, and the Felony charge of Assault against an elderly disabled individual was accepted.

• On Wednesday, June 11th, at approximately 7:50 AM, Officers located a vehicle whose owner is known to have multiple outstanding Felony warrants. The vehicle was found at 11022 Deaf Smith, and Detectives confirmed the subject was at this location. Officers and Detectives contacted the subject in the front yard of this residence and placed him into custody for the multiple Felony warrants.

Thanks to vigilant citizens and collaborative law enforcement efforts, auto theft 🤡s were locked up. Community teamwork pays off.

🚨 Auto Theft Suspects Caught Thanks to Teamwork! 🚨

On 6/10/25 around 8:20 PM, Precinct 2 Deputies responded to a call about a vehicle theft in progress at a vacant home. A citizen reported seeing three suspects trying to steal a vehicle — the same location where a truck had been stolen the day before.

Thanks to a tip from a wrecker driver, deputies traced the tow request to an address in Galena Park. That led investigators to Justin William Boon, who was positively ID’d from surveillance footage.

Precinct 2, Houston PD, and Galena Park PD worked together to detain Boon and two others. Deputies also recovered the stolen truck from the day before on the property!

👮‍♂️ Boon and Jesus Lozano were charged with Burglary of a Building.
👏 Huge kudos to our deputies for their great work every step of the way.

Constable Garcia teamed up with Mr. Robert at W.I.L.D. to rescue a raccoon family turning an attic into their home.

WILDLIFE INTERVENTION & LOCAL DEFENSE ASSISTS CONSTABLE’S OFFICE WITH FURY FELONS
Constable Jerry Garcia wants to take a moment to spotlight Mr. Robert with Wildlife Intervention & Local Defense (W.I.L.D). Recently Constable Garcia was contacted by an elderly female who was having severe issues with rodents destroying her residence. Literally animals were chewing through her roof and other parts of her house in order to gain access.
Having nowhere else to turn, she reached out to Constable Garcia, who truly believes in the Serving part of “To Serve and Protect.” Immediately Constable Garcia began reaching out to Community Partners when he was provided Mr. Roberts Information. Mr. Robert immediately jumped into action and began the process of removing what was now found to be a mother raccoon and several babies from the attic of this residence.
Mr. Robert truly went above and beyond on the services he provided to this residence, and not only safely and humanely relocated these burglars, but properly sealed up her residence to detour any potential returns.
Thank you W.I.L.D. for everything, your service and assistance are truly appreciated. If anyone out there is having similar issues, we highly recommend reaching out to Mr. Robert. God Bless.

A tragic loss, Precinct 2 remembers Sergeant Manuel Edwards, a dedicated officer who brought joy, compassion, and laughter to everyone around him.

It is with a very heavy heart that the Harris County Precinct 2 Constable’s Office announces the untimely passing of Sergeant Manuel Edwards. Sergeant Edwards was involved in an auto-pedestrian accident this morning while he was riding his bicycle off duty. Upon being involved in this accident, he was quickly life-flighted to Memorial Herman Hospital, where he ultimately succumbed to his injuries.

Sergeant Edwards proudly served the citizens of Harris County since 2006, where he started his law enforcement career as a detention officer with the Harris County Sheriff’s Office. In 2008, Sergeant Edwards was hired by the Harris County Precinct 5 Constable’s Office, where he worked until transferring to the Harris County Precinct 2 Constable’s Office in May of 2021. During his tenure at Precinct 2, Sergeant Edwards was assigned to the Toll Road Division, where he truly shined with his compassionate approach and strong work ethic. His passion and knowledge quickly led to his promotion to the rank of Sergeant in 2023.

Sergeant Edwards was always known as a big guy with a huge, joyful personality around the office, and always had an infectious smile on his face. He was the epitome of a family man, always taking great pride in his children and wife, frequently talking about them.

Sergeant Edwards will forever be missed and never replaced in Precinct 2’s heart. We want to wish the Edwards family all of our support and prayers during this difficult time, and know that we all stand with you as one family.

We would also like to take a moment to thank all our law enforcement partners for the invaluable assistance they have provided so far. Thank you to the Harris County Constable Precinct’s 3,5,6,7, and 8, the Harris County Sheriff’s Office, Fort Bend County Constable Precinct’s 1, 3, and 4, the Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Office, and the Houston Police Department. We also want to thank the staff at Memorial Hermann Hospital, including the Medical and Security Personnel, for their professionalism and support during this difficult time.

Please keep Sergeant Edward’s family in your thoughts and prayers as we endure this tragic loss.
God Bless You All.

*On Sunday, May 25th, at approximately 3:35 AM, Officers were dispatched to the Dollar General located at 10405 W Fairmont in reference to an alarm. Officers arrived and found that the front glass door of the business was shattered. Officers saw a male inside the business sitting on the desk of the checkout area. The subject complied with the Officers’ verbal commands and exited the business. No other subjects were located inside the store. The suspect (juvenile) told Officers he broke into the building by throwing a rock at the front glass door. He said he went inside, used the restroom, and then took some food and drink from the refrigerator section. He said his intentions were to break into the store to steal a snack. Officers saw a rock inside the building and an open drink/snack near the area where the male was sitting when Officers arrived. Surveillance footage from the store confirmed the juvenile’s account. The HCDAO was contacted and the Felony charge of Burglary of a Building was accepted. The juvenile was arrested and later released to a responsible party.

*On Sunday, May 25th, at approximately 5:04 PM, Officers were dispatched to the 2100 block of N 146 in reference to a possible assault.

The Port Police Officer contacted the woman, and she told the Port Police Officer her boyfriend had assaulted her. The male subject was also on scene and the Port Police Officer detained the male subject. The La Porte Officer spoke with the female subject and saw a visible red mark on the right side of her face, with bruises on both wrists, and a bruise on her left thigh. The female said the assault took place in the 100 block of N 76th Street in Houston when the female tried to exit the vehicle being driven by her boyfriend (suspect). The two were arguing because the suspect was drinking and driving. When the female tried to exit the car, the suspect pulled her back in by her hair. As the two struggled, the suspect pulled her by her wrist and put his knee on her. The female also said the suspect slapped her in the face with an open hand. The female went on to say that the suspect had hit her before this latest incident. Officers then contacted the male suspect, and after being issued his Miranda warning, the suspect denied hitting her or pulling her hair. He did say the two were arguing, but claimed it was because she accused him of infidelity. When questioned as to how they arrived in La Porte, the suspect said he “just began driving.” Officers contacted the Harris County Constable’s Office in Precinct 6, the location where the offense occurred, but they declined to respond to the scene. Officers contacted the HCDAO, and a charge of Felony Family Violence Assault – One Prior Conviction was accepted.

Precinct 2 Deputy Trevino bravely retrieved an abandoned trapped cat without a cat scratch. It’s illegal to dump animals.

Animal Rescue Alert – Precinct 2 Deputies to the Rescue!

Earlier today, Harris County Constable Precinct 2 Deputies responded to an animal humane call after a concerned citizen reported a cat stuck in the undercarriage of her vehicle. The caller stated she witnessed someone abandon the feline near her home yesterday afternoon. Shortly after, she saw the cat climb under her car and later realized it had become trapped.

Deputy Trevino arrived on scene and, with a little patience and persuasion, was able to safely remove the frightened feline from the vehicle. Thankfully, the caller kindly volunteered to take custody of the cat and help find it a loving new home.

A friendly reminder: While this cat was fortunate to be rescued, it is against Texas state law to abandon animals. If you’re unable to care for a pet, please contact a local shelter or rescue organization for help.

Thank you, Deputy Trevino, for your compassion and quick response!

PPD Officer David M. Staley is remembered and his memorial found a new home, honoring his dedication and friendship, cherished by all who knew him.

In 1985, Officer David M. Staley passed away after suffering a cardiac event at his home. Officer Staley took part in academy class #18, which graduated in the year 1968. A beloved Field Training Officer and friend, members of the department felt it was important to honor his memory. Officer Joe Tammaro, who Staley had trained as a probationary officer, was a key contributor to facilitating the purchase and dedication of the memorial. While he is no longer with our department, all these years later, Officer Tammaro remains a close friend of the Staley family.

The memorial was originally placed under an oak tree along the east drive of the old police station, which eventually became the location of the new Municipal Courthouse. With the opening of the Pasadena Plaza in front of the Police Station, the department felt this was the perfect time to relocate the marker to a new location, closer to the station.

With the family’s blessing, the memorial stone is now situated under a different oak tree along a walkway in the plaza, where passerbys can bear remembrance to Officer Staley as they come and go from the station.

Precinct 2 and the US Marshals preformed an arrest warrant for evading unwittingly unveiled a public nuisance complete with electrical theft.

On May 16, 2025, Harris County Precinct 2 Constables Jerry Garcia’s Special Operation Unit, along with the assistance of the US Marshals Office, executed an arrest warrant located along the 10600 block of Kirkdale. Along with a Felony Arrest Warrant for Evading on file for one of the residents, deputies were also conducting an investigation, alongside Center Point Energy, for electrical theft.
Upon executing this arrest warrant, investigators found that the electrical panel where the power entered the residence was tampered with, allowing the residence to obtain free electrical power. The tampering off the panel caused there to be exposed wires which were energized and a danger to anyone walking near the area.
During this investigation deputies and marshals were able to take 25 year old Randle Medlin for his felony warrant after a brief foot pursuit, and also charged him with Criminal Mischief for the tampering and stealing of the electrical services.
Suspect Medlin was later transported and booked into Harris County Jail without further incident. Investigators are also aware that this residence is a public nuisance, and are currently working to resolve this issue. Constable Garcia wants his residents to know that he hears your concerns, and will continue to address all issues that are reported to him. Please stay safe and God Bless.

During National Police Week, Precinct 8 honors Constable John Monroe Weaver, a brave officer who paid the ultimate price in service to his community.

National Police Week is underway from May 11th-17th. As we reflect on the many lives that have been sacrificed in service to communities across the country, we wanted to take a moment to remember Precinct 8 Constable John Monroe Weaver who was killed in the line of duty on June 19, 1929.

Constable Weaver was shot and killed after he and two other lawmen raided a dance hall on Yale Street that was being used as an illegal bootleg establishment. As they approached the building, approximately thirty people fled. The constables were only able to apprehend the owner’s daughter. As she led them to where her uncle was hiding, the constables were ambushed and Constable Weaver was shot twice, once in the elbow and once in the stomach. He was rushed to the hospital but died from his wounds a half hour later. The suspect escaped but was later found dead after he committed suicide.

Constable Weaver was the elected constable of Precinct 8 and had only held the post for five months. He was survived by his wife and son.

His name is engraved among those of the many law enforcement officers who are honored at the Harris County Peace Officers’ Memorial in Houston.

Video: The Pasadena Police Department’s collaborative efforts with city leaders are tackling tough challenges, ensuring a thriving, safe, and supportive community for all residents.

Spotlight on the great work and collaboration between the Pasadena Police Department and city departments to keep Pasadena thriving.

The Pasadena Police Department’s Quality of Life (QOL), Community Improvement, and Code Enforcement Division, with the assistance of other city leaders, has teamed up to focus on some problem areas throughout Pasadena. The relationships and partnerships among these departments are vital to the city’s continued growth and success.

Across the nation, we face issues of how to deal with the effects of drug addiction and those struggling with mental health issues and homelessness. As Pasadena grows, it is vital to maintain the city’s aesthetic, health, cleanliness, and safety. The Pasadena Police Department must uphold the law while providing compassionate support and resources to assist individuals in transitioning off the street and into housing or the appropriate county service.

We want to thank our partners at the Harris Center for Mental Health and Intellectual Developmental Disabilities, who play a vital role in helping us immediately evaluate individuals at the time of contact with an officer. Their support allows us to provide prompt and appropriate assistance to those facing mental illness or homelessness. Another wonderful organization the Pasadena QOL has outsourced during their homelessness encounters and would also like to thank is Families to Freedom. This organization assists Domestic Violence survivors with reaching loved ones outside the city or state.

We are proud of Sergeant M. Hibbs, Officer W. Jones, Officer R. Childers, and Officer C. Cook’s efforts. Their hard work makes an impact and strengthens the department’s outreach and presence in the community, driving positive change in Pasadena.

After years of hard work, PPD retirees gathered for an evening filled with laughter, food, and memories.

After years of dedicated service to our department and the community of Pasadena, these amazing folks deserve a night to relax and reminisce. The Retiree Dinner is always a favorite, as we get to watch old friends and colleagues greet each other with a fondness born out of their shared experience. There were big hugs and even bigger smiles as they were given the chance to catch up with others who lived through the good, the bad, and the ugly that come with this career. Aside from lots of delicious food and plentiful laughter, this year, attendees were treated to a presentation that may have finally provided answers to one of our department’s most infamous mysteries.

It is always our pleasure to host this event, and it would not be possible without the dedicated efforts of Sgt. J. Anderson and Lt. R. Granados. With each year, we see the continued growth of this night, and we are very much looking forward to next year’s event.

Precinct 8 Deputy Margison tasered a crafty 🤡 attempting to purchase iPhones with phony IDs.

On Wednesday, April 30, 2025, Deputy Shawn Margison of the Harris County Precinct 8 Constable’s Office responded to a report of attempted fraud at 19400 block of Gulf Freeway.

The store’s Loss Prevention personnel reported that a black female matching the description from a recent “Be on the Lookout” (BOLO) alert had entered the store and attempted to purchase two Apple iPhones using a fictitious identification card. This individual had tried a similar transaction at another store location earlier in the day but was turned away after staff identified the ID as fraudulent.

Upon arrival, Deputy Margison observed the suspect seated at the mobile phone counter and was directed to her by store personnel. When questioned, the suspect claimed she was checking an account on behalf of her father and presented an Illinois ID card. However, the store associate confirmed that this was not the ID previously presented during the attempted purchase.

As Deputy Margison attempted to detain the suspect, she became physically non-compliant, resisting verbal commands and attempts to secure her in handcuffs. After verbal warnings and multiple efforts to gain compliance, Deputy Margison successfully deployed his department-issued TASER and was able to detain the suspect without further incident.

The suspect was positively identified as 25-year-old Alexis Jones of Chicago, IL. A search of the Jones’ belongings revealed additional fraudulent documents, including: 1 Texas Driver’s License bearing her photograph with false identifying information and 1 Minnesota Driver’s License also displaying her photograph under a different identity. Both documents were confirmed to be fictitious. Jones was ultimately arrested and transported to the Harris County Jail and charged with Tampering with a Government Record & Interfering with Public Duties.

Precinct 8 Deputy J. Humphrey’s standoff concluded with the arrest of a fugitive 🤡 and his accomplice, another 🤡, both evading justice.

Yesterday, April 29, 2025, Deputy J. Humphrey made an arrest on a male for two felony warrants and a female for hindering the apprehension of a fugitive. Deputy Humphrey arrived at an apartment located in the 1500 block of Bay Area Blvd. in Houston to look for 37-year-old Matthew Bishop, whom the deputy knew was wanted out of Harris County for felony Evading in a Motor Vehicle and Possession of a Controlled Substance. Deputy Humphrey was familiar with the male because on April 16, 2025, he was involved in a vehicle pursuit with Bishop and he was subsequently arrested. After Bishop later failed to appear for court on the charges, arrest warrants were issued for him. When Deputy Humphrey arrived, he went to Bishop’s apartment and observed a delivery driver talking to Bishop from his apartment doorway. Deputy Humphrey was able to positively identify Bishop by sight. Upon seeing Deputy Humphrey, Bishop slammed the door and refused to exit the apartment. A female began to talk through the door repeatedly stating Bishop was not home, even though he was seen by Deputy Humphrey inside the apartment. After a 20-minute standoff, the male finally exited and was arrested. The female was also familiar to Deputy Humphrey because she had been in the vehicle with Bishop when he fled from him on April 16th, but had to be released that day due to medical reasons. The female was arrested for Hindering Apprehension of a Fugitive and Failure to Identify, after it was learned she provided a false name to Deputy Humphrey both yesterday and on April 16th following the initial pursuit. Her true identity was confirmed to be 34-year-old Samantha Ann Galloway and it was discovered she was also wanted out of Fort Bend County on warrants for Unauthorized Use of a Motor Vehicle and Fraudulent Use of ID. Both Bishop and Galloway were booked into the Harris County Jail without incident. Bishop has since been denied bond and a bond for Galloway has not yet been set.

Remaining days:
• Monday, 4/28 from 8am to 5pm
• Tuesday, 4/29 from 8am to 5pm.

Election Day is Saturday, May 3, 2025 – 7am to 7pm – City Hall, Council Chambers

There are only two measures on the ballot since the mayor and council positions are uncontested.

The measures relate to the special tax districts supporting public safety – Crime Control & Prevention and Fire Control Prevention and Emergency Medical Services District (which supports the Volunteer Fire Department, Fire Marshal’s Office and EMS). The two measures are for renewal of the each district for 20 years and renewal of each associated ¼ cent sales tax for the same period.

The two districts were voted into existence in 2011 by the voters and renewed again in 2016 for 10 years and up for renewal again in 2025.
The ¼ cent sales tax for the Fire Control Prevention and EMS District is necessary to support the 100% volunteer fire department in purchase personal protective equipment, obtaining emergency communication equipment and maintaining fire and rescue tools, which are required for handling emergencies effectively.
The ¼ cent sales tax for the Crime Control & Prevention District has contributed to various aspects of the Police department including supporting addition of staffing positions, the acquisition of vehicles and purchase of investigative hardware and software. It has improved the department’s capabilities and its services to the community.

Voting “For” means that district(s) and their ¼ cent sales tax will continue for another 20 years.

Voting “Against” means that the district(s) and their funding will expire in May 2026.

Citizens came prepared with questions about department programs and outreach, as well as ideas to spread our voice into the Spanish speaking community.

On April 23, 2025, at approximately 7:15 PM, Precinct 8 Deputy O.

PPD SWAT tryouts are just the beginning; these officers train daily to turn their skills into seamless, life-saving teamwork on the streets.

A couple weeks ago, we highlighted our SWAT tryouts and the immense undertaking it is to train for and complete that process. The training and effort does not end there though, as that is just the tip of the iceberg in their commitment to this team.

All of a police officer’s skills are perishable without practice and repetition. So, in order to advance and remain a top tier resource for our department, these officers must participate in regularly scheduled training. SWAT officers constantly work to hone their skills in building search, breaching, marksmanship and so much more. There is an expectation to maintain peak levels of physical fitness and mental acuity, study new tactics and advancements in strategy in our profession and learn to work as a cohesive unit.

We have also found over the years, that this knowledge is an applicable resource, even when a situation does not warrant a SWAT callout. Many of these officers work patrol as their regular assignment, so every day they are able to assist in high stress and volatile situations.

On April 16, 2025, Harris County Precinct 8 Constable Investigators and members of the department’s Street Crimes Unit conducted surveillance at multiple locations in order to and execute arrest warrants for defendants stemming from a long-term criminal investigation we first told you about back in February.

On February 26th of this year, a search warrant was served at My City Hemp, located at 517 El Dorado Blvd., based on facts gathered during an investigation into this business. Over 93 pounds of marijuana was seized during that search and was submitted for laboratory testing. The results confirmed the substance was positive for marijuana and not hemp as suspected. Additional items seized were determined to be Delta 9 tetrahydrocannabinol, which is a controlled substance. 52-year-old Jason Moreno, who was inside the business at the time the search was conducted, was found to be possession of a firearm. He was arrested and charged with Felon in Possession of a Firearm and his bond was set at $5,000.

Once the test results for the narcotics were received, arrest warrants were issued on Jason Moreno, 53-year-old Maria Moreno and 18-year-old Kevin Moreno for Possession of a Controlled Substance with Intent to Deliver. These warrants were executed on April 16th and Kevin and Jason Moreno were taken into custody. At the time of his arrest, Kevin Moreno was found to be in possession of an additional 46.81 pounds of marijuana.

Based on intelligence gathered during the service of these arrest warrants, another search warrant was obtained for My City Hemp. Upon execution, 48.12 lbs. of marijuana was located inside the business. The narcotics as well as US Currency was seized.
Concurrent search warrants related to this case were executed at a private residence in Galveston County by the Galveston County Precinct 1 Constable’s Office and the League City Police Department. During that search, 1 lb of marijuana, 7.5 lbs of Delta 9, 1 shotgun and US currency was seized.

Last week PPD’s future detectives dived into the world of crime scene investigation, mastering sketching techniques and unearthing secrets hidden in fingerprints.

This Monday, students from our Police Department’s Community Engagement Division’s Junior Citizen Police Academy had the unique opportunity to step into the shoes of detectives and crime scene investigators.

Detectives from the Burglary and Theft Division visited the class to share insight into their work. They discussed real cases, investigative methods, and how suspects typically operate. Students got a behind-the-scenes look at how cases are solved and what it takes to work in this specialized unit.

They also had the chance to interact with the Crime Scene Unit during a hands-on workshop. Students participated in a staged crime scene, learning how to sketch the scene properly and understanding why sketching remains such an important part of crime scene documentation—especially when measurements and spatial relationships need to be preserved beyond photographs.

The class also explored the basics of fingerprint identification, including the three main types: loops, whorls, and arches. In addition, students were introduced to the importance of DNA evidence and trace materials like hair follicles and how all these small details play a major role in building a case. The session even touched on body decomposition and how scenes are processed in real-life investigations.

The students were fully engaged, asking thoughtful questions and showing a strong interest. It was an incredibly informative and eye-opening experience that brought forensic science and criminal investigations to life in a way many had never seen before.

Law enforcement teamwork strikes again with the arrest of two metal thieves at the Goodyear Bayport Chemical Plant.

Area Law Enforcement Teamwork Leads to Arrests Once Again**

Early yesterday morning, at approximately 2:38 AM, the Precinct 8 Dispatch Center received a call regarding suspicious persons trespassing at the Goodyear Bayport Chemical Plant located in the 13400 block of Bay Area Blvd. in La Porte. Upon arrival, Deputies learned that 2 males, later identified as 42-year-old Brent John Wentland and 42-year-old Samuel Ignacio Esparza, both unlawfully entered the secured plant by cutting through a chain-link fence. Once inside, they stole specialized metal flanges, copper welding leads and various other scrap metals.

Plant employees reported that they confronted the suspects, who then fled the scene. Responding units quickly established a perimeter around a nearby wooded area. HPD’s Fox helicopter was requested for aerial support and successfully detected two heat signatures believed to be the suspects. However, the helicopter was forced to leave the area due to being low on fuel.

Officers with the Pasadena Police Department responded to the area a short time later with an aerial drone, and successfully reacquired the suspects’ locations. With assistance from Harris County Sheriff’s Office K-9 units, both individuals were located and taken into custody.

The Harris County District Attorney’s Office accepted charges for felony metal theft and the pair were booked in the Harris County Jail. Bonds were later set at $15,000 on both suspects.

Last week, aspiring detectives at the Citizen’s Police Academy got their hands dirty exploring the intriguing world of crime scene investigation.

“Policemen are often confronted with situations which baffle them at first. A certain crime scene may seem meaningless, but they have to derive some meaning out of it. They have to connect the dots, find the links, delve into its history, look for evidence, come up with a zillion theories and arrive at truth.” – Mahendra Jakhar

This week, our Citizen’s Police Academy participants were given a behind the scenes look at how a crime scene is processed, with examples ranging from fingerprinting a suspect to collecting evidence at a murder scene.

Their sketching skills were put to the test, as they worked through the steps our Crime Scene Unit would take when first arriving on a call. Then, they took a look through a magnifying glass, as they identified the specific characteristics of their own fingerprints. Not only a wonderful hands-on lesson, this night is also a great opportunity for our officers to answer questions about what is fiction and what is fact, when it comes to the science behind this work.

A little tip from Precinct 2 about your car and school busses.

When a school bus is stopped with flashing red lights and an extended stop arm, drivers must halt, regardless of whether they are behind the bus or approaching from the opposite direction on an undivided roadway. According to Texas Transportation Code § 545.066, vehicles may not proceed until the bus resumes movement, the driver indicates it’s safe to go, or the lights and stop sign are deactivated. Violating this law can lead to fines of up to $1,250 and, more critically, endangers children’s lives. It’s essential to prioritize their safety—always stop for school buses. 🚌❤️ #StopForTheBus #SchoolBusSafety #DriveSafeTexas #ProtectOurKids ************************ 🛑 STOP for School Buses — It’s the Law! 🛑

When a school bus is stopped with flashing red lights and the stop arm extended, drivers must stop—whether you’re behind the bus or approaching from the opposite direction on an undivided roadway (no median).

As per Texas Transportation Code § 545.066, you may not proceed until:
✔️ The bus resumes motion
✔️ The driver signals you to proceed
✔️ Or the lights and stop sign are no longer activated

Passing a stopped school bus can result in fines up to $1,250 — and more importantly, it puts children’s lives at risk.

Let’s protect our kids. Slow down and stop when the bus does. 🚌❤️

No matter the title or task, Ricky consistently approached his work with a helpful spirit and a positive attitude.

His commitment to excellence did not go unnoticed. Ricky was known for always going the extra mile and for making sure the Police Department always looked its best; whether it was ensuring the facilities were spotless or lending a hand wherever needed, Ricky’s presence made a difference.

Now, as he steps into retirement, Ricky is looking forward to spending more time with his family and finally getting to travel—something he has long looked forward to. His legacy of service and positivity will be remembered fondly by all who had the pleasure of working with him.

Info about PPD’s SWAT tryouts challenging the brave to conquer intense physical tests and mental hurdles, forging only the strongest candidates.

SWAT Tryouts: Pushing the Limits

There’s no room for hesitation in SWAT tryouts. The process is tough—designed to test physical strength, firearms skills, and mental toughness. It starts with a demanding physical test, followed by a firearms qualification. Those who pass both move on to a review panel, where their performance is evaluated even further.

It’s a rough process, both physically and mentally. The stress alone can be overwhelming, and that’s before factoring in the physical exhaustion and the pressure to perform. There is no showing up and winging it for these tryouts, you have to be ready for it, plain and simple.

We’re proud of everyone who stepped up to the challenge, put in the work, and pushed themselves to be among the best. SWAT isn’t just another assignment—it’s a commitment to being the strongest, most capable officers out there.

Precinct 8 Deputy Bullock ended up in a wild high-speed chase with a daring 17-year-old 🤡 who forgot to take off his work shoes before he ran.

A traffic stop on April 2, 2025, resulted in a high-speed pursuit and the arrest of a 17-year-old driver. Deputy Bullock was conducting routine patrol in the area of Edgebrook and the Gulf Freeway when he initiated a stop on a gray Honda for displaying an expired temporary tag. While the vehicle initially pulled over, it sped off once Deputy Bullock made contact, sparking a pursuit.

The pursuit lasted approximately six miles before reaching Algonquin Drive, where Deputy Bullock observed the passenger exit the vehicle while it was still moving. Deputy Bullock stopped to render aid, and assisting deputies quickly established a perimeter around the area. The suspect vehicle was located inside an apartment complex in the 11800 block of Algonquin Dr. Witnesses reported seeing the vehicle driving erratically through the complex before it abruptly stopped. They observed the driver exit the vehicle, flee into an apartment, and later leave the apartment shortly before the vehicle was located.

With the help of witnesses, deputies were able to obtain information on the suspect’s direction of travel. This led to the successful location of the driver, identified as 17-year-old Eduardo Carcamo, at a nearby business. He was taken into custody without further incident and charged with Evading in a Motor Vehicle.

The passenger, who had exited the vehicle during the pursuit, was transported to a local hospital with minor injuries.

LPPD join the fight against sexual assault during Sexual Assault Awareness Month.

Sexual Assault Awareness Month, observed each April, is a campaign that aims to increase awareness about the causes and risk factors for sexual assault and empower individuals to take steps to prevent it in their communities.

Observed as an opportunity to promote education and the prevention of sexual violence, Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM) traces its history to the 1970s, when activists first began organizing on a national scale to reduce sexual assault and violence against women. Advocates fought tirelessly to bring a topic once taboo for public discussion out of the shadows and shed light on the widespread problem of sexual assault.

This year’s theme “Together We Act, United We Change” highlights the importance of working together to address and prevent sexual abuse, assault, and harassment. This campaign focuses on enhancing public understanding of sexual violence, amplifying the voices of survivors, and empowering us to work together to promote the safety and well-being of others. Everyone in our communities deserves to live in safe and supportive environments where they are treated with respect. When our workplaces, schools, and communities work together to uphold safety and respect, we make progress in preventing sexual abuse, assault, and harassment.

Together, we have the power to build a future free from violence, where all individuals feel safe, valued, and respected.

It was the public’s help and the social platform that our deputies were able to positively identify Esquivel as the suspect in this case. A huge thanks to Grizzy’s Hood News.

Video: PPD’s Flight Club Ep.1. A clumsy 🤡 tripped over his own decision to go shopping without cash.

Night shift patrol officers caught a burglary suspect window-shopping in the middle of the night with a flashlight—except the suspect forgot to bring money and instead brought a criminal record. When he was confronted by officers, he took off running and tossed a backpack full of stolen property.

Officer C. Johnston quickly coordinated a game plan while Officer Doskocil deployed a PPD drone. Thanks to the quick thinking and proactive nature of our officers, we knew exactly where the suspect was at all times. He started strong, with a brisk run; but unfortunately for him: if you flee, Pasa-get-DRONE-dena will fly!

After his short-lived sprint, he continued his nightly stroll and frolicked through one of Pasadena’s beautiful fields full of rainbows, butterflies, and unicorns. He attempted to jump over yet another fence (and the butterflies wanted no part in aiding him in his getaway), so after being defeated in his first attempt, he decided to try another section of the fence. (The fence was probably shorter on the other end… right?) After making it over the “shorter end of the fence,” he concluded his cardio session with a cool-down walk to where he would “hide” from Officers.

Little did he know, PPD knew his location, and Officers safely approached the suspect and arrested him. Oh, and that backpack he ditched? It was full of over $1,300 in stolen items! The items were returned to the owner, and the suspect earned himself a free ride to Harris County Jail.

PPD Chief Wright’s meeting inspired future sergeants of the Pasadena Police Department, innovating insights for community policing.

Pasadena Police Department’s Chief Wright met with the department’s future leaders—officers who have taken the first step toward becoming sergeants. There’s no better way to receive insight and guidance than from one of their own, someone who once stood in their position, took the same sergeant’s exam, and built a career through dedication and perseverance.

Chief Wright spoke about the vision and mission of the Pasadena Police Department, highlighting the importance of community engagement and the programs that drive progress for both the department and the community it serves. He discussed the future of the department, emphasizing the RAMP program for officer mental health and advancements in technology such as drones and PACE, referencing the Broken Windows Theory to reinforce proactive policing efforts.

Becoming a sergeant isn’t just about earning a new title—it’s about leadership, responsibility, commitment to service, and love for the job. These candidates have already shown they are ready to take on more significant challenges. Pasadena PD is known for training the best, and we are confident in their ability and dedication to guide and inspire the next generation of Pasadena police officers.

When Precinct 2 Deputies approached a 🤡 at the Sims Bayou encampment, he found out there’s more than one way to be identified.

Deputies at Constable Jerry Garcia’s office, responded to a report of a homeless encampment alongside the Sims Bayou. This location has a trespass affidavit on file, prohibiting unauthorized individuals from being on-site.

Upon arrival, deputies made contact with a male subject and offered him resources for his displacement, which he declined. When asked to provide identification for a written trespass warning, the male gave a false name. Deputies utilized the Mobile AFIS device and positively identified him as Joseph III Morris.

A records check revealed that Morris had two active felony warrants issued by the Harris County Sheriff’s Office. He was also found to be in possession of a controlled substance. The Harris County District Attorney’s Office was contacted and accepted charges for Failure to Identify as a Fugitive and Possession of a Controlled Substance.

Morris was placed into custody and transported to the Harris County Joint Processing Center.
