Arrest warrants issued for three suspects in murder of Joshua Brown, who Dallas cops say was killed [View all]

Source: New York Daily News

Arrest warrants for capital murder have been issued for three suspects in connection with the fatal shooting of Joshua Brown, who testified in the Amber Guyger murder trial but was killed in a botched drug transaction, according to authorities.

Dallas cops said during a press conference on Tuesday that the three assailants traveled from Louisiana to buy drugs from Brown. A “physical altercation” ensued Friday, according to cops.

Brown shot suspect Jacquerious Mitchell in the chest before he was shot twice and killed by Mitchell’s accomplice Thaddeous Green, according to authorities.

Green and the third suspect Michael Mitchell remain at large, but Jacquerious Mitchell is in police custody at a Dallas-area hospital.
