New crime-fighting pilot program part of District J Patrol initiative unveiled Updated: Tags: HOUSTON – Thursday morning Council Member Edward Pollard unveiled and demonstrated a new online reporting platform as part of the District J Patrol initiative. “The concept of the District J patrol was born out of directly hearing from residents on issues they were facing, regarding lower-level quality of life crimes and violations that plague our community,” said Pollard. The new digital platform allows residents in District J to report quality of life issues and lower level crimes like the removal of junk cars, panhandling, prostitution, illegal parking and graffiti abatement.
