Detectives on Sunday night arrested a man who they allege shot to death a security guard earlier in the day during a confrontation in east Fort Worth.

Dadrian Freeman, 21, was booked on suspicion of murder in the killing of Dominique Colemon, 38, in the parking lot of the H & J Hamburger restaurant in the 4500 block of Miller Avenue, according to a police record.

The Fort Worth Police Department has not publicly described the evidence it believes supports the arrest.

Colemon was working at Club New Start, an after-hours night club, about 5:45 a.m. when he went across the street to the restaurant lot and began talking to Freeman and a confrontation ensued, police said. Freeman also shot a 35-year-old woman at the same time, police said. The woman suffered a non-life-threatening injury, police said.

Freeman left the scene after the shooting, police said.
