June 21, 2019 - Charges have been filed against two suspects following an officer-involved shooting incident at 9603 Bissonnet Street about 3:10 p.m. on Wednesday (June 19).
One suspect, Dahani D. Davis (b/m, 23), is charged with aggravated robbery and felon in possession of a weapon in the 176th State District Court. Davis sustained at least one gunshot wound and is currently in stable condition at Memorial Hermann Southwest Hospital. A 2018 booking photo of Davis is attached to this news release.
The other suspect, Keon Crosby (b/m, 22), is charged with felony evading arrest in a motor vehicle and felon in possession of a weapon in the 176th State District Court. A booking photo of Crosby is attached to this news release.
Two Houston police officers, D. Baskin and J. Baker, discharged their duty weapons. The officers, assigned to the Westside Patrol Division, were not injured. Officer Baskin was sworn in as an officer in February 2008 and Baker as an officer in October 2012.
A third law enforcement officer, an agent with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) crime gun strike force, also discharged a weapon.
HPD Special Investigations Unit Officers R. Lujan, G. Garcia and J. Snook reported:
Officers assigned to the Westside Divisional Gang Unit and the ATF agent were conducting a joint robbery investigation when an officer observed a vehicle reported stolen in an aggravated robbery. The officer radioed - to officers in marked patrol vehicles - the location of the vehicle and a description of the occupants. Once officers in the patrol vehicles located the vehicle, they conducted a felony traffic stop and arrested the driver, Crosby.
The front passenger, later identified as Davis, fled on foot and was later located at a restaurant parking lot at the above address. Officer Baker observed Davis attempting to carjack a motorist in the drive-thru lane. The officer gave verbal commands and ordered Davis to drop his weapon. Davis turned toward Officer Baker and the ATF agent. The agent and officer feared for their lives and discharged their weapons. Davis ran into the restaurant and out the back door, with Officer Baskin in pursuit.
Once outside the restaurant, Officer Baskin observed Davis still holding the weapon. Officer Baskin gave Davis verbal commands to drop the weapon and, fearing for his life and the lives of patrons, discharged his duty weapon striking Davis, who was then taken into custody. Officers immediately began administering first aid to Davis prior to arrival of Houston Fire Department paramedics. Davis was transported to the hospital where doctors stated he is expected to survive his injuries.
As is customary in officer-involved shooting incidents in the city limits, this case is being investigated by the HPD Special Investigations Unit and Internal Affairs Division, as well as the Harris County District Attorney's Office.
