Duncanville, TX – On Sunday, June 19, 2022, at approximately 9:43 PM, Duncanville Police Officers were dispatched to a shooting with injury call in the 1000 block of Hayworth Avenue in Duncanville, Texas.
Upon arrival, officers found a thirty-five-year-old male lying motionless in a driveway from an apparent gunshot wound and a thirty-six-year-old female with an apparent gunshot wound to her left arm.
