Man fatally shot after firing at 2 men in west Oak Cliff, police say

A 36-year-old man was fatally shot Saturday afternoon after he fired at two men during an argument in west Oak Cliff, Dallas police said.

Officers responded about 1 p.m. to the 3500 block of Rio Grande Circle where they found the man, identified as Jamien Olivares, on the ground with a gunshot wound and lying near a handgun.

Police said Olivares and two other men had been fighting when Olivares fired one round, grazing one of the men in the back of the head. Olivares then fell to his knee and tried to shoot at the pair two more times.

The men told Olivares to get on the ground while they called police. Police said Olivares complied, but then raised the weapon as if he was going to shoot again when one of the men fired, striking him.

Olivares was taken to a local hospital and died, police said.

The man who shot Olivares was treated at a hospital and released. Police said he gave a statement to detectives. A grand jury will decide whether he faces charges in Olivares’ death, police said.
