Join us in extending a hearty welcome to our new WHCA Constable Patrol member - Deputy Ryan O’Shay. He recently joined the neighborhood patrol.
“I am looking forward to keeping the community safe and getting to know the residents of the neighborhood. I believe that a good relationship with residents leads to improved safety for the entire community.”
Deputy O’Shay brings a wealth of experience to our community, including a 15-year career in law enforcement. He was on the Joint Terrorism Task Force West (JTTF West), Intelligence Unit, Gang Interdiction, and Commercial Vehicle Interdiction. He also served as an Animal Cruelty Investigator with the Houston SPCA before joining the Harris County Constable’s Office, Precinct One.
His tips for improving Neighborhood Safety include:
Report suspicious activity early—even small details can help deputies identify patterns.
Use official channels such as non-emergency lines and community apps to stay informed.
Get to know your neighborhood deputy when possible; familiarity helps both sides communicate more effectively.
When not at work you might find him playing the saxophone, guitar, or bass guitar.
