On Tuesday, February 14, 2023, at approximately 5:14 a.m., the Arlington Police Department responded to a home in the 1400 block of Prentice Street to investigate a reported shooting.
When officers arrived on scene, they located a 36-year-old man with an apparent gunshot wound lying unresponsive in an SUV outside the home. He was pronounced deceased at the scene.
Based on their investigation, detectives believe two suspects were in the neighborhood attempting to break into parked vehicles when the victim drove up to his home. It appears one of the suspects was in the victim’s driveway at the time, trying to hide. As the victim pulled into his driveway, the suspect displayed a gun and fired multiple shots at the victim, striking him.
Both suspects then ran from the neighborhood, heading east along Prentice Street.
Investigators are working to identify and locate the suspects. No arrests have been made at this time.
Anyone with information regarding this incident is urged to call Det. Hall at (817) 459-5325. Tipsters can also remain anonymous by calling Crime Stoppers of Tarrant County at (817) 469-8477.
The Tarrant County Medical Examiner’s Office will identify the deceased once next of kin have been notified.
