Description | A former staffer has been identified as the man who killed himself outside U.S. Rep. Beth Van Duyne’s Irving home on Wednesday.
Richard Christian “Chris” Dillard, 55, was the communications director for Van Duyne’s campaign from November 2019 to April 2020, according to his LinkedIn profile. Dillard also worked as a Texas State Guard public affairs officer, a political consultant and was active in the Tarrant County Republican Party.
Irving police responded to a shooting call at about 3:45 p.m. Wednesday after Van Duyne heard a gunshot outside and saw a body on her front porch, police said. Dillard shot himself and died by suicide. He was pronounced dead at the scene. |
