Stanley Coleman, 39, of Dallas was shot and killed on January 30, 2018, inside an apartment in the 3550 block of E. Overton Road and later pronounced dead at a nearby hospital. Police say their investigation pointed to 41-year-old Monnie Howard as the shooter. A witness at the scene identified Howard in a photo lineup.

Police documents report Howard told investigators that he and Coleman had smoked marijuana and PCP earlier that day. Howard said Coleman pointed a .357 caliber gun at him and pulled the trigger but the gun malfunctioned; Howard said he then took the gun and fired multiple shots, claiming he feared for his life. Another gun was recovered at the scene. Howard was arrested on unrelated charges, taken in for questioning, and later charged with murder and held on $100,000 bail.
