The Beaumont Police Explorers Post 730 participated in a week-long Explorer Academy in Biloxi, Mississippi. The week consisted of very little sleep, lots of training and exercise, and a lot of fun activities for the explorers. We would like to thank the Southeastern Law Enforcement Explorer Academy (SLEEA) for all their hard work to make sure events like this are possible.
I am super proud of the two explorers from Post 730 who participated: Isabella Uribe and Cameron Broxton.
During the competition on Friday, Uribe's team (Isabella, Abigail, Dakota, Adeline) earned the top honors in Domestic Violence and Traffic Stops, with Isabella being voted the most motivated female cadet out of all who participated.

A special thank you to Sgt. Woodard and Sgt. Clark with the Texas Department of Public Safety for the wonderful presentation at last night’s Explorer meeting! The Explorers learned driving safety tips and how to avoid road rage situations. It was great information for any age driver but especially these upcoming young adults!

BPD Identifies Police Officer Killed in the Line of Duty- August 9, 2020

It’s a sad day for The Beaumont Police Department and the community that our Officers proudly serve.
At 2:30 this morning, two Beaumont Police Officers were traveling Northbound on Cardinal Drive, near the Hwy 347 overpass, when they were struck head-on by a wrong way driver.
One Officer was transported to the hospital with severe injuries but is stable. He underwent surgery early this morning and has since been released. He has a long road to recovery ahead of him but we will be with him every step of the way.
Unfortunately, his partner did not survive her injuries.
Officer Sheena Yarbrough-Powell, was a 23 year old Lumberton Native. She was hired by the Beaumont Police Department as a Police Cadet on August 13, 2018. On December 20, 2018 she was sworn in as a Beaumont Police Officer. Sheena was assigned to 4th Watch Patrol. She had been married for just 10 months.
There’s no doubt that it’s an extremely difficult time to be a Police Officer but it’s also an extremely important time. Our Officers and Dispatchers have done a remarkable job during this difficult time but today, we are hurting.
The next few days, weeks, months and years will be difficult for Sheena’s family, both blood and blue but we will get through this together with the help of our community.
I would like to say thank you to the State Troopers from the Texas Department of Public Safety for responding and leading the investigation of the crash. I would also like the thank the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office and Lamar P.D. for stepping in and answering our calls for service while most of our Officers were on the scene of the crash.
Also, I want to ask our community to not only keep Sheena’s family and the police department in your prayers but Beaumont EMS and Fire Department. Police, Fire and EMS go hand-in-hand. We are all first responders and our paths cross multiple times throughout our respective shifts. So this loss is hard for them too.
We have already started to feel the outpouring of support from the community and it means more than you know. There will be more information released as we plan the services to honor Sheena’s life.- Chief James Singletary
