This YouTube channel contains audio and video depicting critical incidents involving the Houston Police Department. This material is provided as part of a commitment to transparency by Houston’s mayor and HPD. The material has been redacted and edited to avoid the release of information made confidential by Texas law. 

CAUTION: The images and information depicted may be disturbing. When an officer uses force to arrest a suspect or defend against an attack, it can be graphic, difficult to watch, and may contain strong language. Viewer discretion is advised. 

NOTE: Body Worn Cameras (BWCs) are worn in the middle of the officer’s chest. As a result, the view may be blocked. They also do not show events that occur to the side or behind the officer. Additionally, the BWC captures video but not audio for two minutes prior to its activation. Finally, BWCs periodically emit a buzzing sound. This is an audible reminder that the BWC is recording.
