Hey! Did you take care of that warrant without going to jail yet? If you missed last week opportunity you still have two more chances. Watch this video to learn more then go get it done!

[Richmond Police,TX @RichPD]

Do you have a warrant, or think you have a one with the City of Richmond? Now's your chance to take care of it and not go to jail. After the days listed below Enforcement Week will be on March 3-9. If you have that pesky warrant you will go to jail. And no one wants that.
