Man, 3 dogs dead after mobile home park fire in Northwest Dallas
DALLAS – One person and three dogs died in a mobile home fire in Northwest Dallas early Saturday morning.
According to a news release, the Dallas Fire-Rescue received a 911 call at 6:29 a.m. reporting a fire at 2665 Lombardy Lane. Upon arrival, firefighters found one mobile home engulfed in flames, with two nearby vehicles also on fire. The intensity of the blaze led to a second alarm response, bringing in additional units to control the fire.
Firefighters declared the situation under control at 8:40 a.m. However, the fire caused significant damage to at least four mobile homes and four vehicles.
During the suppression efforts, firefighters found a man unresponsive inside one of the homes. Despite life-saving measures, he was pronounced dead at a local hospital.
At least 11 residents have been displaced by the fire, though the number could be higher, Dallas-Fire Rescue said. Officials have notified the American Red Cross to provide assistance.
The cause of the fire is currently under investigation.
FRISCO, Texas — After 12 seasons in the NFL and the last eight with the Dallas Cowboys, defensive back CJ Goodwin has announced his retirement.
Goodwin, 36, has played in 108 games for the Cowboys since he joined the team in 2018. He was the second longest-tenured Cowboy on the roster behind only Dak Prescott, who preceded Goodwin by two seasons.
Since 2019, Goodwin has been one of Dallas’ key players on special teams, recording 69 tackles with the Cowboys [ninth in Cowboys history] and 87 in his NFL career. In 2021, Goodwin became the first player in franchise history to lead the team in special teams tackles for three consecutive seasons.
After going undrafted in 2014, Goodwin received a tryout with the Pittsburgh Steelers after Steelers Hall of Fame cornerback Mel Blount, whose son attended high school with Goodwin and who Goodwin had worked for as a farm hand, urged the team to give him an opportunity. Pittsburgh would sign him as an undrafted free agent afterwards.
Following time with the Steelers, Falcons, Cardinals, Giants, 49ers and Bengals, the Cowboys signed Goodwin off of Cincinnati’s practice squad in October of 2018.
In his eight seasons with Dallas, Goodwin notched 2,211 snaps on special teams. He worked primarily as a gunner on punt coverage and was one of Dallas’ most impactful defenders on kickoff coverage during his career with the team.
Goodwin was named one of the Cowboys’ six captains in 2025, and the second captain on special teams alongside Brandon Aubrey. He finished the year with 18 special teams tackles.
In 2026, the Cowboys will now have to look to fill Goodwin’s shoes on special teams. Some of their offseason signings, like safety P.J. Locke, have a strong history as defenders on special teams and could end up being crucial for special teams coordinator Nick Sorensen in his second season in Dallas.
Temperatures are expected to climb into the upper-90s and triple digits over the next week, with no real sign of relief! Sunshine dominates the forecast, with only a very slim chance of rain by the end of next week.
