WHEREAS, Officer Travis Nice of the Robinson Police |
|
Department has deservedly been recognized for his actions on |
|
November 11, 2016, when he helped deliver a baby during a traffic |
|
stop; and |
|
WHEREAS, On that day, Robinson patrol officer Brandon Hajek |
|
pulled over a speeding vehicle, whose driver informed him that his |
|

|
summoning the aid of Officer Nice, himself a former paramedic, who |
|
was traveling close behind and soon arrived on the scene; and |
|
WHEREAS, Putting his training into practice, Officer Nice |
|
assessed the situation and then enlisted the help of Officer Hajek |
|
in moving the expectant mother to the back of the vehicle, where he |
|
was able to help her deliver a healthy baby boy; Officer Nice was |
|
later honored with a police commendation medal at a meeting of the |
|
Robinson City Council; and |
|
WHEREAS, Through his skill and presence of mind in an |
|
emergency, Officer Travis Nice earned the profound gratitude of one |
|
family along with the sincere appreciation and esteem of his |
|
colleagues and fellow residents, and he may indeed take great pride |
|
in his actions; now, therefore, be it |
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 85th Texas |
|
Legislature hereby commend Officer Travis Nice for his assistance |
|
in delivering a baby during a traffic stop and extend to him sincere |
|
best wishes for the future; and, be it further |
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
prepared for Officer Nice as an expression of high regard by the |
|
Texas House of Representatives. |
