NEXT ON NBC 5 AT 10: Man Charged with Murder of Dallas 9-Year-Old Missing After Removing Ankle Monitor
A man just days away from standing trial for the murder of a 9-year-old girl in Dallas County is missing after the District Attorney's office said 23-year-old Tyrese Simmons removed his ankle monitor.The 23-year-old is charged with the 2019 murder of 9-year-old Brandoniya Bennett.
Dallas Police said the little girl was killed when Simmons, who was feuding with a fellow rapper, fired into her Old East Dallas apartment by mistake. A second man charged with Bennett's murder, Davonte Benton, was convicted last year and sentenced to 45 years in prison. But one week ahead of Simmons’s trial, Dallas County pretrial services said it received a tamper alert from the ankle monitor Simmons has worn since he was released on bond back in December of 2019.
Court documents say all attempts to contact Simmons have been unsuccessful and that his whereabouts remain unknown.
