Dallas SWAT Kills Armed Suspect Linked to Rep. Jasmine Crockett’s Security Detail

Investigators are examining the shooting and the suspect’s role in a business that placed off‑duty police.

Overview

  • Dallas police say SWAT officers used tear gas in a Children’s Medical Center Dallas garage before the suspect exited, pointed a gun at officers, and was shot dead.
  • Multiple outlets report the man was publicly known as Mike King and had been photographed working near Rep. Jasmine Crockett, with records showing payments for security services last year.
  • Law enforcement sources say he was wanted on an active warrant for impersonating an officer and operated Off Duty Police Services, which connected North Texas officers with extra‑duty jobs.
  • Sources also report he used aliases, drove a replica undercover police vehicle, and affixed stolen license plates, with some accounts describing a prior criminal history.
  • CBS News Texas and other outlets have identified him as Diamon‑Mazairre Robinson, though police have not formally released a legal name, and both Crockett’s office and Dallas PD have declined substantive comment while the inquiry continues.
