The Dallas Police Department has announced an arrest in connection with a triple homicide shooting that occurred in the Deep Ellum neighborhood during the early morning hours of November 1st. Chief Daniel Comeaux is scheduled to provide further details at a press conference set for 2:00 p.m. on Thursday.
The triple homicide represented the final incident in a series of three separate shootings that took place in Deep Ellum while large crowds had gathered to celebrate Halloween throughout the area.
The first shooting occurred at approximately 12:20 a.m. on Elm Street near Good Latimer Expressway, resulting in the death of 20-year-old Isaiah Boling.
Shortly after 1:00 a.m., an armed individual opened fire into a crowd gathered outside a convenience store on Main Street, leaving seven people injured. The previous week, authorities announced the arrest of David Yancy in connection with that particular incident.
At 1:35 a.m., Dallas Police Department officials reported that gunfire erupted along Commerce Street near South Crowdus Street, claiming the lives of three individuals. The Dallas County Medical Examiner subsequently identified the victims as 28-year-old Unique Benjamin, 21-year-old Kaniesa Scott, and 25-year-old Anthony Martin.
