Man killed at Fort Worth apartments; it is the second homicide there in as many weeks
A man is dead after he was shot Saturday night at the Buttercup Place Apartments at 3856 Stalcup Road in Fort Worth, according to police.
It was the second killing at the same address in as many weeks.
Police said they received a call about the Saturday shooting about 8 p.m.
When officers arrived, they found a man had been shot at least once, and he was taken by MedStar to a hospital in critical condition and later died, according to police. The man will be identified by the Tarrant County Medical Examiner’s Office after his next of kin have been notified.
Police said they did not have a suspect in custody. Investigators believe the shooting is related to a disturbance that occurred a short time earlier.
Police did not respond to a question about whether there is any suspicion the shooting is related to another homicide at the same apartment complex on April 12.
In that homicide, police on Tuesday arrested Arron Coleman, 22, in the shooting death of 17-year-old Roshonda Henderson, whom he accused of stealing guns from him, according to an arrest warrant affidavit.
Tarrant County Jail records indicate bond on the murder charge was set at $250,000, but court documents show Coleman is being held without bond after a petition to revoke his probation for an aggravated robbery conviction in 2021 was filed Tuesday.
