Kim Browning is a mom who is challenged with how to celebrate her son Jackson’s 7th birthday during a global pandemic. He loves all things baseball and transformers, and he also adores police.

So, Browning reached out to her high school classmate Casey Hughes for help, who works with the Prairie View A&M University Police Department. PVAMU PD and other law enforcement led a birthday parade for Jackson on May 15 (his actual birthday is on May 17).

Family members, friends, and others joined law enforcement in Magnolia for the parade, which begins at 11 AM.

“The route will be turning off of Crestlake Blvd onto Crestwater Circle, passing slowly in front of the home with individual vehicles stopping momentarily to drop off birthday gifts. The vehicles will then pull to the side of the road, everyone will exit, keeping social distancing in mind, sing happy birthday to Jackson Browning, and watch him open his gifts,” explained Lt. Phillip Englishbee with PVAMU PD.
