Darrin Wilson

Darrin Wilson was a 25-year-old truck driver and a devoted father to two young boys. Known to friends and family by the nicknames “D-Will” and “Knot,” the Dallas man was described as a great father and provider.

In the early morning hours of April 29, 2022, a violent incident occurred in a parking lot on the 7500 block of North Stemmons Freeway. At approximately 12:30 a.m., Dallas police responded to a call and discovered Darrin, a Black male, suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. He was immediately transported to a local hospital in serious condition.

For six days, Darrin Wilson fought for his life. Despite the efforts of medical staff, he succumbed to his injuries and passed away on May 4, 2022. His death was ruled a homicide, and the Dallas Police Department’s Homicide Unit took over the investigation.

Detectives began searching for four men identified as persons of interest in the shooting. Investigators believed the men left the scene in two separate vehicles: a dark-colored sedan and a dark-colored SUV, possibly a Chevy Tahoe. Police released images of the men and asked for the public’s assistance in identifying them.

On May 9, 2022, authorities arrested 30-year-old Tyketirck Montgomery and charged him with murder in connection with Darrin Wilson’s death. As of that arrest in May 2022, the investigation was ongoing. Crime Stoppers offered a reward of up to $5,000 for information leading to an arrest and indictment in the case. Anyone with information is encouraged to contact Detective R. Williams at 214-384-9824 or [email protected], referring to case number 074714-2022.
