Wharton County Constable's Office - Precinct 2

Call Directions

Wharton County Constable's Office - Precinct 2 Welcome to the Official page of the Wharton County Constable’s Office - Precinct #2. A little background about the department……. I am Constable John A.

We encourage and look forward to your input and feedback in matters dealing with WCCO #2, our community and county. The Wharton County Constable’s Office in Precinct #2 is excited to launch our new departmental page. WCCO #2 is located in Northern Wharton County, Texas, and is approximately 45 miles Southwest of Houston. WCCO #2 provides law enforcement service and protection to the citizens of Precinct #2 and assist agencies throughout all of Wharton County. Constables are constitutionally elected peace officers and have the same powers of arrest as other sheriff’s deputies and municipal police officers. Constables and their deputies may enforce traffic laws, make arrests, conduct investigations, and file criminal charges anywhere within their precinct and county. Where we differ from most other law enforcement officers, we have additional duties of executing civil process for the courts and are responsible for providing courtroom security for the justice courts within our precincts. Szymanski, or better known as J.A. to my friends. I began my career as Constable in April of 1992. I was first appointed after winning the 1992 Primary Election, and since I was unopposed in the fall, I began my career in law enforcement and public service. My first official term was January 1, 1993 and on January 1, 2013, I am honored to be starting my sixth term in office. WCCO #2 has grown from a one officer department, to a 12 officer department, in what seems like just a few short years. WCCO #2 operates with both paid and part-time personnel, 4 paid (including myself) and 8 part-time deputies. I owe a lot of my success to my devoted staff that protects the citizens with their many duties. The department operates patrol, traffic enforcement, civil process service, warrant service, courtroom security for justice and county courts, arson investigations, and countywide environmental enforcement services. Another unique service that WCCO #2 provides, is EMS response. 7 out of the 12 personnel are trained at emergency medicine, 6 are paramedics and 1 is an EMT- Intermediate and routinely assist local EMS services at medical and accident scenes. I am proud of our close working relationships with other area law enforcement agencies and schools within our precinct.

Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
800 AM EDT Tue Oct 6 2026

For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of America:

1. Southwestern Gulf of America (AL92):
Showers and thunderstorms are showing signs of organization in
association with a broad area of low pressure located over the
southwestern Gulf of America. Continued development of this system is expected, and a tropical depression is anticipated to form over the next day or so while it drifts eastward. The low pressure area could bring gusty winds and areas of heavy rain to the western
portions of the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico in a couple of days.

The disturbance is expected to turn to the north or northeast toward the northern Gulf Coast by the end of the week. It is still too
early to determine specific impacts to the northern Gulf Coast, but interests from the Florida Panhandle to Louisiana should closely monitor the progress of this system. The NOAA Gulfstream is
scheduled to sample the environment over the Gulf later today and an Air Force reconnaissance aircraft is scheduled to investigate the
system tomorrow.

* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...90 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...high...90 percent.

It is with profound sorrow and the heaviest of hearts that the East Bernard Volunteer Fire Department announces the tragic passing of Fire Chief Randy Kresta.

Chief Kresta devoted nearly 40 years of his life to serving the East Bernard community, protecting his neighbors, and helping those in need. His loss is deeply felt by his fellow firefighters, family, friends, not just in East Bernard, but throughout Wharton County and The State of Texas.

Chief Kresta answered the call whenever his community needed him, leading with courage, compassion, and unwavering dedication. The word “no” was simply not in Chief Kresta’s vocabulary. Regardless of the circumstances, the time of day, or the challenge before him, he was always willing to step up and serve others. His commitment to his community and his fellow firefighters was a true reflection of the man he was.

Nearly four decades of service is more than a career — it is a legacy of selflessness, sacrifice, leadership, and love for the community and the fire service he so proudly served. Chief Kresta’s impact will never be forgotten, and his absence will leave a void that cannot be filled.

During this incredibly difficult time, we ask that you keep Chief Kresta’s family, loved ones, and our entire fire department family in your thoughts and prayers as we grieve the loss of a beloved chief, husband, father, grandfather, brother, friend, and dedicated public servant.

Rest easy, Chief. Thank you for your many years of service, your countless sacrifices, and your unwavering commitment to the citizens of East Bernard.

You answered the call for nearly 40 years. Now, it is our turn to carry on your legacy. God Bless You, Chief!!
