Police: Man killed by Dallas security guard was naked, unarmed
DALLAS - An armed security officer charged with murder told police the man he shot had a gun. He did not.
An arrest warrant affidavit states Willard punched a female security guard in the face before the shooting. Hobbs and other guards responded as backup.
They went into Willard’s apartment to confront him. He was shot during a struggle that spilled out of the apartment. He later died at the hospital.
Hobbs told police he shot Willard in self-defense because the man was running towards him with a gun.
According to the court document, a witness and body camera video from another security officer revealed Willard was not armed. He was actually naked at the time.
Hobbs has bonded out of jail.
