 The patrol bureau is responsible for the protection of lives and property in all of unincorporated Harris County. The HCSO philosophy is to proactively combat crime using cutting-edge community based law enforcement techniques. In order to do this, more deputies have been put on patrol. In fact, since 1995, the bureau has more than doubled the number of deputies on the streets. Patrol operations place greater emphasis than ever before on saturation (Zero Tolerance) operations, uniformed interdiction teams, K-9 units, and other enforcement specialties.

A patrol deputy is responsible for investigating all types of criminal activity, making required comprehensive reports and filing appropriate charges in an attempt to deter criminal activity. They also apprehend violators and target potential hazardous activities and areas for enhanced enforcement efforts. Patrol deputies respond to and investigate traffic accidents and issue citations in an attempt to make our roadways safer for the public.
