Dallas Police Shooting: Armed man killed after barricading himself at Children’s Health hospital
DALLAS – A police investigation into a wanted suspect ended in a fatal shooting late Wednesday night after the individual barricaded himself in a vehicle at a Dallas children’s hospital, authorities said.
Standoff at Children’s Health hospital
The incident began around 11 p.m. in the 1900 block of Medical District Drive. Dallas police were conducting an investigation into a suspect with an active warrant when they located the man in a parking lot at Children’s Health.
As the situation escalated, SWAT teams were called to the scene. Officers discovered the suspect had barricaded himself inside a vehicle and refused to exit. To end the standoff, officers deployed tear gas into the car.
Dig deeper:
According to police, the suspect eventually exited the vehicle but pointed a firearm at the officers. In response, police shot at the suspect.
A doctor with Dallas police rendered immediate medical aid to the suspect, but he was pronounced dead at the scene. No officers were injured during the confrontation.
What we don’t know:
At this time, police have not released the identity of the suspect, pending notification of next of kin by the medical examiner’s office. It remains unclear what the original warrant was for or why the suspect was in the hospital parking lot.
The investigation into the shooting is ongoing.

Arguments about the best doughnut shops can get heated. We have our own personal top 10 favorites. And we have issues with DoorDash’s list below. So, let’s dive right into this sweet, round confection with a hole in the middle.
For National Donut Day, which is Friday, June 5, for all those who celebrate, DoorDash has a roundup of the top 100-rated small and medium-sized donut shops on DoorDash. The list includes local businesses across 86 cities and 25 states.
To be considered for the Donut Day Dozens list, the bakery must be small or medium-sized, have fewer than 10 stores, and have at least 1,000 reviews. The shops with the highest average consumer ratings from April 2025 to April 2026 were chosen.
Of the 21 donut shops chosen across Texas, 13 are located in North Texas.
North Texas bakeries named best doughnuts
- Morning Donuts – Dallas, TX

- Donut King #3 – Fort Worth, TX

- Earnest Donuts – Lewisville, TX
- Four Seasons Donuts – Irving, TX

A few misses
There are some obvious big misses here. Like La Rue in Trinity Groves, which apparently was left off because it has fewer than 1,000 reviews. We awarded this chef-driven shop Best Doughnuts in 2025 for pushing out top-tier confections every morning and a seasonal menu that will both win you over and break your heart. They’re also using only beef tallow in the fryers now.
And no Jarams? The shop on Preston Road has a 4.7 average rating on DoorDash, and it appears 4.8 was the cutoff. The family-owned Jarams is one of the best shops in Dallas.
As is Detour Donuts in Frisco. This is run by an ambitious young baker who draws long lines for themed doughnuts and a rotating menu.
Beyond North Texas …
The rest of the awarded donut shops were mostly located in Houston, with a sprinkle in San Antonio. Shops were listed in alphabetical order, and not with any sort of numbered ranking system.
