Oliver Moffett, 36, was killed late on December 23, 2024, in the Red Bird area of Dallas. Officers responding about 11:30 p.m. to the 7500 block of Chaucer Place found Moffett suffering from gunshot wounds; a preliminary investigation determined he died from those injuries. The normally quiet residential street became the scene of a homicide investigation just minutes before Christmas Eve.

Investigators developed information pointing to another person involved. Police located that individual at a local hospital, took the person into custody, and initially withheld the identity until formal booking. The case was handled as a homicide under Dallas Police Department case number 191197-2024. Reporting identified the suspect as Keyshawn Arnell Shaw and said he was arrested on December 24 and charged with murder; contemporaneous reports identified Shaw as 17 and showed he was being held on the murder accusation by December 26. No motive, relationship between Shaw and Moffett, or events immediately before the shooting have been publicly disclosed.

Does anyone have information about Oliver Moffett or the events on Chaucer Place that night?
