1 killed, 1 injured in Dallas shooting after ongoing feud – NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth

Dallas police said an ongoing dispute between three young men resulted in a shooting that left one man dead and another injured.

The suspected shooter is in jail on $1 million bail.

The shooting happened June 11 around 10:40 p.m. in the 400 block of South Winnetka Avenue in Oak Cliff.

A barrage of bullets and speeding cars woke neighbors in this normally quiet neighborhood.

Darin Short and Wayne Brown were house-sitting for their friends.

“I was fast asleep and all of a sudden I heard ten really big pops like pops! Popular! Popular! Dad, Short said. “I knew it was gunshots. It looked like it was on our porch.

Police found Stephano Osorio, 23, shot to death at the scene.

A 16-year-old boy who was with him was also shot and rushed to the hospital where he was last listed in stable condition, according to DPD.

Osorio's family says he just celebrated his 23rd birthdayrd birthday last month.

He also attended El Centro College where he studied architecture.

Detectives later identified and arrested the suspected shooter, 20-year-old Salvador Martinez.

Martinez is now charged with murder and is being held on $1 million bail.

DPD and the victim's family say there was an ongoing feud between the victims and Martinez.

Osorio's father says they called police after their home was hit, but were told there wasn't enough evidence to arrest anyone.

Short also heard from other neighbors that there had been an ongoing feud between those involved and could not understand what could justify such violence.

“For kids to have guns is just stupid. There is no excuse for that,” he said. “Society has to change, that’s all.”
