AROUND THE COUNTRY ARLINGTON, TX. Arlington Police Officer Darrin McMichael was involved in a crash near I-20 in Dallas and transported to an area hospital, but was pronounced deceased from his injuries. ARLINGTON, TX. – Early Thursday morning, on September 21, 2023, the Arlington Police Department was notified that an APD officer was involved in a crash near I-20 and Dowdy Ferry Road in Dallas as he was heading into work for the day. That employee, Officer Darrin McMichael, Badge #1805, was transported to an area hospital where he was later pronounced deceased from his injuries. Officer McMichael was a 24- year veteran of the Arlington Police Department and a dedicated member of our Motorcycle Unit, where he’d honorably served for the last 13 years. He also served as a patrol officer and as a detective in our North Patrol District during his APD career. OFFICER BRIAN HOLLEY OFFICER DARRIN McMICHAEL “Officer Darrin McMichael was a respected and beloved member of our APD family,” said Chief of Police Al Jones. “We are heartbroken and we are hurting. This is a devastating loss that will be felt for a long time. Please pray for his wife, who is also an APD employee, his family, his friends, and his APD family. They need all the support they can get right now.” Officials said he was driving his police-issued motorcycle when he bumped into an SUV in front of him, and fell. Then, officials said another car ran over McMichael and drove off. Dallas County deputies said they are looking for anyone with dashcam footage of the crash as it could aid in their investigation. Anyone with tips should call the Dallas County Sheriff’s Office vehicle crime unit Detective Chaney at 214-589-2323. At a press conference Thursday afternoon, Chief Jones urged the driver to come forward, saying loved ones would like closure. We are ready for 2023!
