One Dead and One Hospitalized After Exchange of Gunfire at Fort Worth Home

Police say a preliminary finding ties the killed man to an active protective order involving a household member.

Overview

  • The shooting happened at a home on Misty Glenn Court on Saturday afternoon when a resident returned and confronted a man who was not supposed to be there and the two exchanged gunfire.
  • Police pronounced one man dead at the scene and took the resident to a local hospital with gunshot wounds; the resident’s condition has not been publicly detailed.
  • The Tarrant County Medical Examiner’s Office identified the dead man as 29-year-old Darius Levy after next-of-kin were notified.
  • Fort Worth homicide detectives are leading the probe and have asked anyone who witnessed the shooting or has video to contact the Fort Worth Police Department at 817-392-4222.
  • Neighbors expressed shock that the gunfire occurred near children and the incident raises questions about a possible protective-order violation and whether criminal charges will follow as investigators piece together who fired first.
