In 1926,
Temple Station was established as Station Number 5.
It has
had at least 4 different locations over the years, but it
has been at its current site since 1957.
To date,
Temple Station has lost two of its Deputies . The first to
give his life in the service of Temple Station Community
was Deputy Harold S. Blevins in 1957. He was responding to
a robbery in progress call where he was shot by a career
criminal and recent parolee. The second and hopefully the
last was Deputy David W. March in 2002. He too was shot by
a career criminal, who fled the country to escape
prosecution. Deputy March's killer has since been captured, convicted, and sentenced. |
