Hometown Hero

The Crossroads welcomes six new Victoria Police Department officers. We thank them all for choosing to serve and protect our communities.

Sgt. Michael Varela is a Hometown Hero, serving his family, the U.S. National Guard and Cuero Regional Hospital EMS. Thank you Sgt. Varela for all you do.

This week we salute James Howell for his service in the Army in the 1980s. Thank you for keeping our families safe and our country free James Howell.

We've teamed up with Post Acute Medical in Victoria to present our local HOMETOWN HEROS, those that serve to protect our families and our freedoms. Nominate your hero, just like Halee Ybarra, today.
