Police Officer Brian Jackson was shot and killed during a foot pursuit of a suspect through a residential area on Madera Avenue.
Officer Jackson responded to a domestic disturbance call on North Henderson Street at approximately 2:45 am. The suspect had threatened his ex-girlfriend and fired a handgun inside a house at the location. When Officer Jackson arrived, the male suspect fled on foot and led officers on a chase through alleys and between houses. The suspect entered a yard and hid, then opened fire on Officer Jackson as he came through the front gate, striking him in the armpit. The suspect ran out of bullets and tossed the gun to the ground, gave up, and was taken into custody.
Officer Jackson was transported to Baylor Medical Center where he succumbed to the wound approximately one hour later.
The suspect, who was an illegal alien, was charged, convicted of capital murder, and sentenced to death.
Officer Jackson had served with the Dallas Police Department for five years. He is survived by his wife, parents, and sister.

Most Recent Reflection
View all 580 ReflectionsI was one of Brian’s FTO’s. He was one of the best I trained. He was a joy to train and was highly dedicated to being a Dallas Police Officer. I think of him often and was very proud of him as one of my rookies. This young man was what every Officer should model himself after. Rest in Peace my friend.
