Dallas Texas June 1st, 2023
Dallas police have announced an arrest in the murder of a security officer who tried to stop a person suspected of burglarizing cars.
Police say that they arrested a 17-year-old for the killing of Dallas security officer.
On Wednesday, the Dallas Police Department said officers had arrested Antwon Osborne, 17, for the homicide which occurred on May 19.
Officers responded to a shooting call at a garage in the 8200 block of Westchester Drive. The area is known to many as Preston Center West.
Officers found a security officer with a gunshot wound, and he was transported to a local hospital, where he later died, police said.
The victim was later identified by police as 34-year-old Adalberto Santiago.
Police said that Osborne broke into multiple vehicles in the parking garage when the security officer confronted him. Police said a fight broke out, and the suspect then pulled a gun and shot Santiago before fleeing the scene.
Security footage of the struggle was made available to local media. In it, you see the gold sedan pull out of a parking space on top of the parking garage with the security officer hanging out of the driver’s door.
The sedan crashes, and then a few moments pass by before you see who is believed to be the security officer running behind the car and collapsing.
The car then speeds away.
Police said the suspect’s vehicle was found at about 5 p.m. Friday in a closed business parking lot in the 2200 block of North Cockrell Hill Road.
