Darryl Garrett, 51, was among three Harris County Precinct 4 constable deputies working extra security at 45 Norte Bar and Lounge in north Houston when they were ambushed during the early hours of October 16, 2017. The attack left Deputy Kareem Atkins fatally shot; Garrett and Deputy Juqaim Barthen were wounded. Garrett sustained multiple gunshot wounds to the back and required surgery.

The shooter fled the scene; authorities later said a suspect had been arrested but had not released the person’s name at the time of reporting. Garrett’s fiancée said the three deputies were very close, more like brothers than colleagues. Nearly two months after the shooting Garrett remained hospitalized and was continuing his recovery.

If anyone has information about the ambush at 45 Norte Bar and Lounge or knew the deputies, please come forward to share what you know.
