October 2024

The boundaries of Beat Six are east of S. 11^th Street, to the Brazos River, and south of the Union Pacific railroad tracks to Austin/Loop FM 762. This area is commonly referred to as the Historic and Old Town Districts of the City of Richmond.

During the month of October, I met with three residents that reside in my Beat. The first two residents I spoke to were during National Night Out. Due to the large amount of people that attended the block party it was difficult to gather contact information for all who attended. While speaking to the two residents they had mentioned that were glad for the block party which occurred in the grassy lot behind Blockhouse Coffee, stating that Beat 6 had not had a block party in the last couple of years. After speaking to the residents, I along with other officer at the Beat party began to play tag with the children that were at the party as well as eating hot dogs and chips with the residents.

I then met Victora Cantu, while patrolling in Beat 6. Cantu stated she did not have any issues at this time. We then talked about how she lived in Freeman Town growing and just moved back to Richmond again with her husband. I then continued to have a conversation on her growing up in Richmond. I gave Cantu my business card and told her to email me or give me a call if she has any issues or questions.
