You know that goofy slogan you’ve heard for years that goes “Drive Sober, Or Get Pulled Over”?? Well this incident release is going to harp on that a little bit.

NAPLES OFFICERS GRADUATE BASIC SWAT SCHOOL.

The Naples Texas Police Department is proud to announce that Officer Gonzales and Officer Randle successfully completed a comprehensive one-week SWAT training course on Friday.

This intensive course brought together law enforcement officers from the Naples area and several surrounding agencies. Throughout the week, officers participated in specialized training designed to strengthen their ability to safely and effectively respond to some of the most challenging and unpredictable situations law enforcement may encounter.

The training focused on advanced tactics and coordinated responses that can be utilized when executing search and arrest warrants, responding to active shooter incidents, managing hostage situations, and handling barricaded subjects or other high-risk calls.

Training of this nature is not only about tactical skills—it is about preparation, communication, teamwork, and safety. The knowledge and experience gained through this course will help our officers make sound decisions under stressful circumstances and work more effectively with other law enforcement agencies when a critical incident occurs.

Most importantly, this training helps protect our citizens and our officers. Having officers who are properly trained and prepared for high-risk situations can help reduce unnecessary risks, improve coordination, and provide a safer response when seconds matter.

The Naples Texas Police Department is committed to providing our community with professional, well-trained officers and continually investing in training that improves the safety and security of the citizens we serve.

Please join us in congratulating Officer Gonzales and Officer Randle on successfully completing this demanding course. We are proud of their dedication to training, their commitment to their fellow officers, and their continued commitment to serving the Naples community.

Congratulations to all the officers who completed this course!

The information released in this post will be very limited due to this still being an open investigation, and due to the victim being a child.

With that said, a couple of weeks ago the Naples Police Department launched an investigation into a report of possible sexual conduct involving a grown adult and a 14 year old child. Naples officers got to work right away, making this a top priority case. During the course of the investigation, officers obtained evidence and conducted numerous interviews.

With the evidence and information that the officers learned, Naples Police Department applied for an arrest warrant for the arrest of Jeffery Edwin Matthews, of Naples Texas, for Indecency With a Child Sexual Contact, a second degree Felony. A judge reviewed, approved, and issued a warrant for the arrest of Jeffery Matthews. On Friday, Naples officers located Matthew’s and took him into custody, booking him into the Morris County Jail. A Naples Judge set Matthew’s total bond at $100,000. As of Monday, Matthew’s was still in the Morris County Jail.

This is still an active and on going investigation. If anyone has any additional information about this case, or other cases involving Matthew’s, please contact the Naples Police Department or Morris County Sheriff Department.

Well…

In the late night hours of 06-11-2026, a Naples Officer was on Patrol on Highway 67 when he conducted a traffic stop on a pickup truck for a defective head light. Upon making contact with the driver, the officer could smell the strong odor of an alcoholic beverage on the drivers breath. The driver, Molli Puckett, admitted she had been drinking and agreed to perform field sobriety testing to ensure she was safe to drive.

At the conclusion of the testing, the officer placed Puckett under arrest for Driving while Intoxicated, after determining that she was operating a motor vehicle on a public roadway while intoxicated. After Puckett was arrested, she became verbally and physically violent. Puckett began resisting the officer, banging her head into items inside the patrol unit, licking the inside of the patrol car, attempting to escape from custody, threatening physical harm to the officer, and spitting in the officers face.

This little stunt cost Puckett the following charges… Driving While Intoxicated (Misd B), Resisting Arrest (Misd A), Terroristic Threat of Peace Officer (Felony), Escape Custody (Felony), Obstruction or Retaliation (Felony), and Harassment of Public Servant (Felony). Puckett was booked into the Morris County Jail and a Morris JP Judge set her total bond amount at $23,000. Puckett bonded out a couple days later.

A few days later, on 06-16-2026, a Naples Officer received a call from dispatch about a female subject walking down the roadway tipping over people’s trash cans. The officer made contact with the female and it was none other than miss Puckett. On this incident Puckett was also intoxicated. When the officer attempted to make contact with Puckett, she evaded the officer on foot but was quickly apprehended.

Puckett then decided to physically fight against the officer. During this incident Puckett also threatened physical harm to the officer, physically assaulted the officer, and spit on the officer. The officer placed Puckett under arrest and secured her inside his patrol unit. Puckett was transported back to the Morris County Jail where she was charged with Public Intoxication (Misd C), Resisting Arrest (Misd A), Assault on Peace Officer (Felony) Evading Arrest with Previous Convictions (Felony), Harassment of Public Servant (Felony), Terroristic Threat of Peace Officer (Felony), and Obstruction or Retaliation (Felony).

A Morris JP Judge set the total bond amount of these charges at $30,000. The previous bonds from Pucketts first arrest were revoked. As of this post Puckett remains in the Morris County Jail.

Please do not spit on our officers… it’s gross🤢 and it’s a felony.

SHOUT OUT TO K9 CHIP

Did you know that K9 Chip holds two different Narcotic Detection Certifications? These certifications are both valid for one calendar year, meaning that Chip will re- certify twice a year. On 5-26-2026, K9 Chip and his Handler attended a recertification course by National Narcotic Detector Dog Association (NNDDA). This is a federal program that checks for proficiency and drug detection ability in K9 police dogs, giving certifications and recertifications to dogs who pass the program. Chip passed recertification with a perfect score on all his trained drug odors! Chip has never failed a recertification test and has never failed on any of his trained target odors.

This cute little dog has hundreds and hundreds of logged, continuing training hours, and a drive to work that can’t be matched. Every single morning Chip is eager to load up and get to work. We are proud to have him and are very proud of the fantastic work he has been doing for our community! Chips size, personality, and performance make him impossible not to love! Well, unless you’re trying to travel through Naples with illegal drugs in your car🤷🏻👀.. . . .
