Dallas SWAT Kills Fugitive Bodyguard Linked to Jasmine Crockett in Parking-Garage Standoff
A fugitive who worked as a security contractor for Rep. Jasmine Crockett was shot dead by Dallas police SWAT after a standoff in a parking garage. The man, identified by CBS News Texas as Mike King, reportedly used aliases, ran a security business and oversaw security at hotels and a church, and Crockett had paid him for security services as recently as last year. He allegedly impersonated a police officer, drove a replica undercover vehicle, and used stolen license plates; authorities say tear gas forced him from the vehicle before he fired on officers. King’s real name has not been released, and the incident highlights questions about how such a figure secured high‑level security work for a sitting congresswoman amid Crockett’s recent primary loss.
