A barbecue was held to raise money for the family of fallen Mesquite PD Officer Richard Houston.

A couple hundred people raised money for Houston’s wife and three kids while sharing memories.Paul’s son plays baseball with Houston’s son. They now wear his badge on their uniforms."It’s something special, because it just shows how much the community still supports us," Mesquite Police Department Captain Stephen Biggs said.
"It hasn’t happened in Mesquite for 47 years, and when that happened on December 3, it was jarring for us," Biggs said.
