“Our entire Sheriff’s Office family is grieving the sudden loss of our longtime brother,” Sheriff Gonzalez said. “Sgt. Watson served his community with honor and distinction, and we ask for everyone to lift his family in prayer during this difficult time.”

KHOU11 reports that Watson, 51, was assigned to the Patrol Support Services Bureau and worked the night shift at the Emergency Dispatch Center. He joined the Sheriff’s Office in March 2000 and previously served as a Detention Sergeant in the Harris County Jail, a patrol field training officer and an instructor at the training academy.

He was also a United States Army Veteran.
