Henry Crayton, a 55-year-old Black man, was shot and killed in Dallas on November 1, 2019. The shooting happened about 6:20 p.m. at 3100 Great Trinity Forest Way after a series of disturbances at the location. Crayton and an unknown suspect exchanged words that escalated into a physical altercation; he was taken to an area hospital and later died of his wounds.

Investigators say the conflict began outside the Plaza Now store when 34-year-old Antonio Dunn approached Crayton and accused him of exposing himself to Dunn’s children. The men moved across the street to a vacant lot and a fight followed. Crayton allegedly produced a knife, and Dunn reportedly fired at least three times, then fled. Witnesses and surveillance footage identified Dunn as the shooter.

Dunn was arrested and charged with murder; he admitted to killing Crayton but maintained it was self-defense. Bond was set at $100,000. Does anyone have information about the plaza area that evening or saw what happened near the vacant lot?
