Sheriff Wright will be missed. Thank you, sir.
I am sorry to hear that former Fort Bend County Sheriff Milton Wright passed tonight. Prior to serving as Sheriff, Wright served our State as a Texas Ranger. I thank him for his service to our community. I always enjoyed our conversations. He will be missed.

🔥Wildfire danger ramps up again this week across portions of Texas as hotter temperatures, dry fuels, and gusty winds intensify. Avoid outdoor burning, secure trailer chains, and stay aware of local forecasts. Conditions can change quickly— be prepared: https://t.co/wXPVB8cmrC

Terrible news, Sheriff. We send our prayers to the deputy’s family and friends.
It is with profound sadness and deep sympathy that we announce the loss of a @HCSOTexas deputy. Please join us in praying for the loved ones and friends of our deputy, who was killed in an off-duty traffic collision early this morning at the 23000 Aldine Westfield/Ciderwood.

We remember and salute those who served in defense of our Nation.
WE WILL NEVER FORGET. 84 years ago, our country was attacked...the response from our GREATEST GENERATION solidified America as a SUPERPOWER. Our victory in WWII honors the service members lost during this tragic attack.

It’s that time again- @TexasFootball vs. @AggieFootball Friendships pause, bragging rights are on the line, and everyone is suddenly a ‘football expert.’ Whether you’re yelling ‘Hook ’Em’ or ‘Gig ’Em,’ just remember: we’re all Texans. Who’s winning today?! Pic: Benjamin Knox
