Arlington cold case: Investigators seek help 10 years after man was killed while walking his dog | wfaa.com
October 26, 2020
''Arlington investigators are asking the public for more information on the death of a man who was killed while walking his dog 10 years ago.
George Hawkins was gunned down on Oct. 26, 2010. Police said Hawkins left his home at Sutter Creek Apartments on Plum Street. He planned to walk his dog before heading to work. Around 7:45 a.m., neighbors heard gunshots.
Hawkins was found lying on the ground in a breezeway and pronounced dead at the scene.''
''Anyone with information on the case is asked to contact homicide Det. Grant Gildon at 817-459-5691.
Tipsters can also remain anonymous and contact Tarrant County Crime Stoppers at 817-469-8477.''

''The then 52-year-old Hawkins left his home at the Sutter Creek Apartments, in the 2200 block of Plum Street, heading out to take his Shih Tzu dog named ‘Jasmine’ for a walk before work. It was just before 8:00 a.m. when neighbors reported hearing gunshots and later found Hawkins lying in a breezeway. He never made it to the hospital.
After following through on what they say were ‘multiple leads’ over the years, investigators don’t think robbery was a motive for the shooting.
“We are hopeful that someone who may know something will come forward with the information we need,” said Interim Police Chief Kevin Kolbye. “We ask the public to help us solve this case by shining new light on the incident.”
Hawkins had worked for the U.S. Postal Service for almost 30 years.''
