									<p class="speakable">A Houston police officer has drowned in his patrol car after floodwaters from Tropical Storm Harvey trapped him in his vehicle.</p>
<p class="speakable">Three officials from the police department told the <a href="http://www.chron.com/news/houston-texas/article/Houston-Police-officer-drowns-in-Harvey-12145510.php" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Houston Chronicle</a> on Tuesday the officer was heading to work Sunday morning when he got trapped in his vehicle.</p>
<p class="speakable">Sergeant Steve Perez, 60, died on Sunday morning during Harvey, Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner confirmed during a news conference Tuesday. Perez was heading to work when he was caught in floodwaters.  Sgt. Perez was a 34 year veteran of the agency.</p>
<p>Houston Police recovered Perez&#8217;s vehicle at 8 a.m. Tuesday morning.</p>
<p>Perez&#8217;s wife said the police sergeant told her &#8220;I&#8217;ve got work to do&#8221; when she asked him to reconsider going to work.</p>
