Chief Deputy Pollock Fundraiser

Burleson County Chief Deputy John Pollock was injured, Tuesday, August 17 while trying to serve an arrest warrant  for aggravated robbery at a home in Burleson County. He suffered a serious gunshot wound that resulted in extensive damage to the jaw area. John underwent surgery at St Joseph hospital in Bryan Wednesday and although the surgery went well, only time will tell if things will heal properly. If not, there is the possibility of other surgeries down the road.

John had an extensive career with the Brazos County Sheriff’s Office (28 years) and attained the rank of Patrol Lieutenant before beginning his career with the Burleson County Sheriff’s Office (1.5 years) as Chief Deputy. He is known across the Brazos Valley for serving and protecting the community, but his friends and colleagues describe him as much more than the badge he wears. John is a friend to the public whether he has his badge on or not.
