A late-morning shooting in Pleasant Grove turned fatal on July 10, 2026. Nineteen-year-old Lacorian Darfour was shot about 11:10 a.m. in the 9500 block of Bruton Road and was taken by Dallas Fire-Rescue to a nearby hospital, where he died of his wounds. The Dallas Police Department opened a homicide investigation and assigned incident number 100387-2026.

Detectives canvassed the area, which the report describes as a known crime hotspot, seeking witnesses and surveillance footage. The motive and the events immediately before the shooting were unclear in the initial investigation. No suspects had been publicly identified and no arrests were announced; the assailant was described only as an unknown suspect. Detective T. Johnston and homicide investigators asked anyone who was near Bruton Road and North St. Augustine Drive that morning to come forward with tips or video.

If anyone was in that area or has footage from the late morning of July 10, did you see or record anything that could help investigators?
