Fundraiser planned for Harris County deputy who suffered devastating injuries in a deadly ambush
For a $10 donation, fundraiser attendees will enjoy a barbecue sandwich and chips. All funds raised will go to Garrett to assist him and his family in meet their financial needs, as he continues to heal from his injuries.He said all the members of the constable’s office, deputies and staff members are pitching in to ensure a successful fundraising event.
The tragic incident, in which Garrett was injured, occurred Oct. 16, 2021, at a bar in North Houston where he and two other constable deputies were working on a security job. Constable Deputy Kareem Atkins was killed in the same attack, and the third deputy was injured. Deputy Jaquim Barthem, who was shot in the leg, has since recovered from his injuries and has returned to service.
“It was devastating,” Steward said. “To lose one of our brothers in blue, especially one who was so young and hadn't been on the job that long.” As a result of the attack, Garrett lost both of his kidneys, suffered damage to his spine, nerves and intestines. He also had his gallbladder removed and is currently unable to walk.“He should not have had to have suffered such catastrophic injuries,” he said.
