I thought about it and I agree with Steve.ashleyb wrote:Hey guys,
I need some advice about how to deal with the Houston PD. Last week I was taken to the emergency room because of an interaction between alcohol and a prescription medication - my roommate called 911 after she couldn't wake me up. I stayed at the hospital overnight because of my physical condition but was never admitted to any sort of psychiatric facility. When the police came with EMS they removed two handguns and a shotgun from my apartment, which I'm guessing is standard procedure when responding to such calls. According to my roommate, each firearm was taken by a different cop. She showed a paramedic both my DL and CHL but no information was taken down until everyone else was gone. She didn't receive a report of any kind and I wasn't given a case number or other any paperwork.
You should call 713-308-8900 first thing Monday morning and tell them some of your property was taken by some HPD officers and neither you nor your roommate received a receipt or any other paperwork. Be clear that you want your property returned ASAP. Let them tell you how to proceed. If they want you to come in person and make a written statement, do so and bring witnesses. This is for everyone's benefit.
