Pursuant to the Texas Public Information Act, I hereby request the following records:

I am requesting for monthly property crime statistics collected by the Hays County sheriff's office from October 25, 2017, to October 25, 2019. The request would include statistics on burglary, larceny / theft and motor vehicle theft.

I am a reporter from CNET, a technology website and a subsidiary of CBS. I am based in New York, and can be contacted by email at alfred.ng@cbs.com or over the phone at 646-472-3908.

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.

In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 10 business days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,
