On February 9, 2025, at approximately 12:50 a.m., officers from the Dallas Police Department responded to a shooting incident in the 7200 block of S. Lancaster Road. Upon arrival, they discovered the victim, 23-year-old Donald Daniels, who had suffered gunshot wounds. Daniels was rushed to the hospital, but despite medical efforts, he did not survive his injuries.
Authorities later identified the suspect as 29-year-old Jarvis Boyd.
Boyd contacted 911 and voluntarily turned himself in to law enforcement. He has since been charged with murder in connection to the fatal shooting. While police have confirmed Boyd’s arrest, they have not yet released details regarding the circumstances leading up to the incident.
The shooting occurred in southeast Oak Cliff, an area of Dallas that has seen incidents of violent crime in the past. Investigators are continuing to examine the case, and further updates may be provided as more information becomes available.
