Margarita Brooks, known as Maggie, was a 30-year-old mother of three from Arlington, Texas, who died on August 1, 2019, after being struck by a ricocheted bullet. She was waiting for her boyfriend in a grassy area behind a shopping center with her lab mix when former Arlington police officer Ravinder Singh responded to a welfare check about a woman passed out. One bullet ricocheted and hit Brooks in the chest; she was hospitalized and later died of her injuries.

Singh resigned from the department in November 2019 and was indicted by a Tarrant County grand jury in September 2020 on criminally negligent homicide charges. Brooks’s family filed a federal civil rights lawsuit in July 2021 seeking $2 million. A Tarrant County jury found Singh not guilty in August 2022, a verdict that Brooks’s father criticized while Singh described the shooting as a tragic accident.

Was anyone in the shopping center area that day able to see what happened or offer additional details to investigators?
