COUNTY LIFE
Travis Fuller named new Bowie Police SRO
By BARBARA GREEN
Travis Fuller has been named the new Bowie School Resource Officer for the Bowie Police Department.
Fuller, 26, has been a patrol officer with the department for a little more than three years in two different stints. He joined the department in February 2012.
A graduate of Joshua High School, Fuller continued his education at Hill College attending the police academy. The young man always knew he wanted to be a police officer.
As a rookie on the force, Fuller told The Bowie News ever since he was small he and his two brothers wanted to be cops. He was first to achieve the goal and his two older brothers are working in law enforcement-related fields.

Transportation projects cannot receive federal funding unless they are included in the Rural TIP. This includes projects for private vehicles, bicycles, pedestrians, public transport, and commercial vehicles.
A section of Roach Street has been closed for the last few weeks as a new sewer line was installed replacing old clay tile line. It is phase two of multi-phase sewer line project across the city funded through a Texas Water Development Board loan of more than $9.7 million. The project will replace nearly10 miles of aging lines. (News photo by Barbara Green)
