Texas authorities are seeking a manslaughter charge against a Dallas police officer who shot and killed her neighbor in his home.

Texas authorities are seeking a manslaughter charge against a Dallas police officer who shot and killed her neighbor in his home.
The unnamed female officer, thought 26-year-old Botham Jean’s flat was her own, according to officials.
She walked into the flat after her shift on Thursday night and called police, saying she shot a man. Officials said the officer’s blood was tested for alcohol and drugs.
Jean was rushed to the hospital where he later died.
Details before the shooting are still grim. Officials say they do not how the officer got into the home, whether the door was opened and closed.
“Right now, there are more questions than we have answers,” Dallas police chief Renee Hall said at a press conference.
Botham Jean worked for accountancy giant PricewaterhouseCoopers as an analyst, which said that people at the firm were “heartbroken” following his death.
A native of St. Lucia, Jean graduated from Harding University in Arkansas, where he was known for his singing and love of worship, leading services in the university’s chapel.
“Botham was in the prime of his life,” Ignatius Jean, Jean’s uncle, said.
He added that the killing had left Jean’s relatives in St Lucia devastated and that Jean was a “brilliant” man of “impeccable character”.
“You want to think it’s fiction… and you have to grapple with the reality”, he said.
The Texas Rangers have been called in to conduct an independent investigation into Jean’s death.
A Go Fund Me has been set up to assist with any expenses the family need in this time of bereavement.
