Damon Lerone Hines, a 39-year-old African American man from Dallas, Texas, was shot and killed on May 4, 2019. He was found near the back of an apartment complex in the 2700 block of E. Ledbetter at about 1:12 a.m. and was pronounced dead at the scene. His death was one of five fatal shootings in Dallas during a seven-hour span that night.

Damon’s mother, Susan Watson, has pushed for information, saying he had told her earlier in the week that people he had been hanging out with in Temple had turned on him. Police have not identified suspects or public leads; Dallas Police Crime Stoppers is offering up to a $5,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and indictment in the case. The investigation remains open and the family continues to seek answers.

If anyone has information about Damon’s movements in the days before May 4, or about people he associated with in Temple, please contact authorities.
