The Houston Police Department and Child Protective Services informed Constable Ryan Gable’s Safe Harbor Detectives on Friday, March 21, 2025, about Steven Ray Hawkins, a 61-year-old man accused of sexually abusing a child under the age of ten in South Montgomery County, Texas.
Montgomery County Precinct 3 Detectives conducted a thorough investigation into the allegations and found enough probable cause to charge Hawkins with Indecency with a Child, a second-degree crime. Although Pct. 3 detectives filed an arrest warrant at the time, they were unable to locate Hawkins. On Tuesday, July 29, 2025, Pct. 3 Detectives received word that Hawkins had surrendered and turned himself in to the Houston Police Department.
Constable Gable and his crew are still committed to prosecuting those who choose to abuse or exploit our children.
