HCSO-Mounted Patrol

HCSO-Mounted Patrol The Harris County SO- Mounted Patrol was formed under Sheriff Buster Kern in 1949 and continues the traditions today under Sheriff Ed Gonzalez.

The Harris County Sheriff’s Office Mounted Patrol was formed under Sheriff Buster Kern in 1949. The Mounted Patrol started out with all volunteers and was eventually transformed as a reserve function. The Reserve unit was utilized for missing persons, escaped prisoners, traffic and crowd control and ceremonial functions. During the Mid 80’s the Mounted Patrol saw an increase of full time deputies

participating and is now the predominate group amongst the members. Deputies and their mounts attend approximately 40 hours of school a year to maintain certification. Deputies are assigned as needed and directed by the Sheriff of Harris County.
