Suspect kills self
after surrounded
by police officers
DALLAS (AP) — A murder sus
pect — released by mistake after he
exchanged ID bracelets with another
jail inmate — fatally shot himself in
the head as police surrounded an
apartment where he was hiding, au
thorities said.
Derrick Greene, 18, described by
authorities as a hit man, was found
dead at 5:30 a.m. Saturday in a sec
ond-floor apartment about three
miles northeast of downtown Dallas.
A police tactical squad sur
rounded the apartment about 1 a.m.
Saturday after being tipped that
Greene was hiding in the apartment,
investigator D.A. Watts said.
Off icers saw a man climbing out a
back window of the apartment, but
he went back inside after officers
called to him with a bullhorn, Watts
said.
They continued calling but got no
response and then threw a tear-gas
canister into a window.
Watts said the tactical squad, with
out knowing if anyone else was in
the apartment or if Greene was alive,
finally broke through the door and
found Greene lying dead on the
floor just inside. A .45-caliber hand
gun was beside him.
The Dallas County medical exam
iner’s office estimated that Grt®
died about 1 a.m. of a self-infli
gunshot wound in the mouth.
Officers fired no shots and 1
not hear the shot that killedGred
Watts said.
Greene, a Jamaican who also" 1
by the alias of Johnathon Crow,*
arrested March 15 and held in
mum security at Lew Sterrettjusi
Center on charges of two murdd
an attempted murder and anaj
vated assault on a police officer.
Police suspect the killings onf' 1
20 and Dec. 16 were related todi
trafficking among Jamaican
officers said.
Jail officials said they beli f
Greene escaped by offering
ward to inmate James Arthur,’
exchange for Davis’ prisoner i
lie at ion bracelet.
Davis was to have been releai
from jail Wednesday after a SI, :
bond was posted for him on a
vated assault charges.
Instead, Greene, wearing I
ID bracelet, was released.
