In Fort Bend County Precinct 1, public safety starts with the people who know their neighborhoods best—its residents. That’s why Constable Chad Norvell and the Fort Bend County Precinct 1 Constable’s Office are reinforcing a vital message: “If you see something, say something.”

This simple yet powerful reminder encourages individuals to be vigilant in their communities and to report suspicious activity or non-emergency incidents quickly and responsibly. Whether you live in the Katy area, Fulshear, or elsewhere in unincorporated Fort Bend County Precinct 1, staying aware and taking action when needed can help prevent crime and keep neighborhoods safer for everyone.

 Remember, sharing incidents on social media with neighbors can help raise local awareness, but it does not replace the importance of filing an official report—only direct communication with law enforcement ensures the right authorities are alerted and able to respond.
