Broderic D King, 36, was killed in a shooting in Dallas in the early morning of June 1, 2026. Officers responded about 5:40 a.m. to the 7500 block of Chesterfield Drive and found King with a gunshot wound; Dallas Fire-Rescue was called but he was pronounced dead. The Dallas County Medical Examiner later identified him.

Family and friends remembered King as outgoing, loving, caring and possessing the gift of laughter; he worked for the City of Dallas. The Dallas Police Department opened an active homicide investigation, but as of early June 2026 no suspects have been publicly identified, no arrests announced and no motive released. The shooting was one of several homicides in Dallas that first week of June, although arrests were made in some other, unrelated cases.

If anyone knew Broderic, saw activity in the 7500 block of Chesterfield Drive that morning, or has information about this shooting, please share what you know with investigators.
