October 2024

Beat 1 is in the North Richmond area. Beat 1 is everything North of Clay Street within the City limits. This area of town is commonly known as the “Heights”. This beat includes a business known as Heights Mini Mart and includes George Park.

During the month of October, I met with three people within my Beat. I first met with Herbert who lives at 1411 Jenny Lane. I explained to Herbert that I am the Officer for Beat 1. I asked Herbert if he had any concern and he stated no. Herbert was advised to contact the police department if he has any questions or issues.

As I finished my conversation Herbert, I met Maria at 1308 San Jacinto Ave while patrolling the area. I advised Maria that I am her Beat Officer for the area. Maria stated she has been in the area for about three years. I asked Maria if she has any issues that the police would want to know, and she stated no. Maria was advised to call the Richmond Police Department for concerns or questions.

Lastly, while conducting property checks in Beat 1, I met Deuanette Jackson at 1107 Concord St, while she was setting up for the trick or treaters. Ms. Jackson advised she has been in the area only for a couple years now. Ms. Jackson was asked if she had any concern, she would like the police to know and she said no. While speaking to Ms. Jackson I noticed she had three kids. I asked Ms. Jackson if she would like to be a part of the Santa Behind the Badge program and she stated yes. Ms. Jackson filled the paperwork out for me.
