Charles David Dinwiddie was a 47-year-old detective with the Killeen Police Department who was killed in the line of duty on May 9, 2014, during a SWAT operation. The search warrant was being executed at a residence in Killeen when Dinwiddie was fatally shot by a suspect inside the house, identified as Marvin Guy. Guy was arrested and charged with capital murder.

Dinwiddie joined the Killeen Police Department in 1996 and served in multiple divisions, including as a Master Operator on the SWAT Team. He was born November 28, 1966, in Frankfurt, Germany, and had moved to the United States with his military family. His widow, Holly Dinwiddie, and children, Colin and Chloe, have spoken about the impact of his death on their lives.

The case drew attention for the defendant’s claim that he believed those entering his home were not police and acted in self-defense; the prosecution presented the defendant’s prior criminal history as part of its case. Does anyone have recollections of the operation or information that might shed light on what happened that day?
