The Mesquite Police Department released body camera, surveillance videos of an officer-involved shooting that occurred on December 14th, 2023, around 2:57 a.m.
A Mesquite police officer, conducting routine patrol in the vicinity of Cartright Road and Edwards Church Road, observed a silver Hyundai sedan being followed by a Chrysler sedan. Both vehicles turned onto Cartright Road just as the officer approached the intersection.
Continuing westbound on Cartright Road, the officer witnessed both vehicles entering the 7-Eleven parking lot near Faithon P Lucas Blvd.
Shortly thereafter, at approximately 2:59 a.m., a caller contacted Mesquite Police Department dispatch, reporting the theft of their silver Hyundai sedan from the area near Clay Mathis Drive and Edwards Church Road.
Surveillance footage retrieved afterward revealed a dark-colored Chrysler sedan dropping off a suspect, who approached the Hyundai with a flashlight. Subsequently, both vehicles departed the area together.
CCTV footage from the 7-Eleven depicted both the Hyundai and Chrysler parked at gas pumps. The driver of the stolen Hyundai interacted with the Chrysler’s occupants multiple times.
Returning to the scene after receiving the stolen vehicle report, the officer observed both vehicles still parked at the gas station. Finding the stolen vehicle unoccupied, the officer approached the Chrysler to engage with its occupants.
As the front passenger and the suspect from the stolen Hyundai exited the store and walked toward the Chrysler, the officer commanded them to get on the ground. The front passenger fled on foot, followed by the stolen vehicle’s suspect who complied.
While providing suspect descriptions to dispatch, the officer commanded the Chrysler’s driver not to move. However, the driver reversed the vehicle, and despite repeated commands to stop and turn off the vehicle, proceeded to maneuver away from the pump. Eventually, the vehicle began moving forward, prompting the officer to fire three rounds, striking the driver.
Subsequently, the officer detained three occupants from the backseat of the Chrysler.
Life-saving measures were attempted on the driver, who was pronounced deceased by Mesquite Fire Department paramedics.
Firearms were discovered in various locations within the vehicle: a 45 caliber Llama handgun with two rounds in the front driver-side floorboard, a 7.62 Mini Draco with 23 rounds in the front passenger floorboard, a .40 caliber AR pistol with five rounds in the rear passenger-side floorboard, and a 45 caliber Springfield XDS with two rounds in the rear passenger side floorboard.
The driver of the Chrysler sedan was identified as Payton Lawrence, a 19-year-old male from Mesquite, with an outstanding warrant for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
Of the three occupants detained from the Chrysler’s backseat, two were questioned and released, while the third was arrested due to outstanding warrants.
Despite search efforts involving DPS 101 helicopter and Mesquite Police K9 units, the two fleeing suspects were not found.
The officer involved in the shooting is a 17-year veteran of the Mesquite Police Department and discharged three rounds from a Glock 9mm handgun.
The Mesquite Police Department will continue its investigation into the incident.
