Sharneen Shawn Norman, a 49-year-old African American woman and the eldest daughter of former Dallas Cowboys player Pettis Norman, was found shot dead inside her apartment in the DP&L Flats building in downtown Dallas on November 30, 2014. Her death was ruled a homicide; there were no signs of forced entry. Norman had recently moved back to Dallas from New York, where she worked as a music executive for Sony Music Entertainment.

Her family became concerned after they could not reach her by phone for several days and asked police to perform a welfare check. Officers found her body Monday evening, and investigators determined she had been shot sometime over the preceding weekend. Neighbors reported hearing a commotion before sunrise. Detectives identified Norman’s boyfriend as a person of interest; he was seen leaving the apartment around the time of the shooting and his body was later found in Conway, Arkansas, from a gunshot wound that was being investigated as a possible suicide. The Dallas Police Department continued to search for surveillance video and other evidence and asked anyone with information to come forward.

Did anyone in the Dallas area hear or see anything around the DP&L Flats that weekend, or have information about neighbors who might have seen activity at the building?
