This morning, the Terrell Police Department held its National Police Week Memorial Ceremony to honor and remember the law enforcement officers who made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty.

We were honored to stand alongside members of our community, fellow first responders, elected officials, and the families of those we have lost as we reflected on the meaning of service, sacrifice, and remembrance.

During the ceremony, we recognized the lives and legacies of fallen officers through the reading of names and end of watch, wreath placement, and a moment of silence. Their sacrifice will never be forgotten.

Thank you to everyone who attended and helped make this ceremony meaningful. We remain forever grateful to the officers who gave their lives in service to others, and to the families who continue to carry their legacy each day.

This week, the Terrell Police Department proudly recognizes National Police Week — a time to honor the service, sacrifice, and dedication of law enforcement officers across the country.

We remember those who gave their lives in the line of duty, support the families who continue to carry their legacy, and thank the officers who continue to serve and protect our community each day.

To all law enforcement professionals: thank you for your commitment, courage, and sacrifice. Your service does not go unnoticed.

The missing juvenile reported on May 6, 2026, has been located and is safe.

To protect her identity as a juvenile, the original post has been archived.

We appreciate the community’s assistance and support in helping bring this situation to a safe resolution.

This week, we proudly recognize and thank the dedicated men and women who serve in our municipal jail.

Our detention officers play a critical role in the safety and operation of our department. Their work often happens behind the scenes, but it is essential to maintaining order, ensuring the well-being of those in custody, and supporting our officers in the field.

Their professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to duty do not go unnoticed.

Thank you for your service, your resilience, and the important role you play every day in keeping our community safe.
