Eric Montez, 25, was fatally wounded during a robbery and shooting at an apartment complex in Dallas on May 9, 2022. The attack happened around midnight in the 2700 block of Jefferson Boulevard, just east of Loop 12. Two people were approached in the parking lot; a suspect demanded money, received none, then shot Montez, took his phone, and fled south from the lot. Montez was taken to a hospital and died shortly after arrival.

Police released a sketch based on a witness and describe the suspect as a Black male wearing dark pants, a dark long sleeve shirt, and white tennis shoes. Crime Stoppers is offering up to a $5,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and indictment. The shooting has prompted questions about security at the apartment complex and whether prior incidents or inadequate measures played a role.

Does anyone who lived near Jefferson Boulevard that night or who remembers seeing someone matching that description come forward with tips for investigators?
