Records show search for Cowboys' Marshawn Kneeland included 160 mph chase, K-9s, drone

Marshawn Kneeland, 24, was found dead from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot after a 160 mph chase and hourslong search involving K-9s, drones, and pepper balls, officials said.

  • On Nov. 6, Marshawn Kneeland, a Dallas Cowboys player, was found dead of an apparently self-inflicted gunshot wound after a DPS trooper chased his Dodge Charger, which crashed beside the Dallas North Tollway around 10:42 p.m. Nov. 5.
  • A DPS trooper began the pursuit after trying to stop the Charger, initially believed stolen; officers found an empty holster and family members said Kneeland had been texting goodbye on Nov. 5.
  • Troopers' footage shows the pursuit reached very high speeds, with some estimating up to 160 mph, while search teams used K-9 units, a drone, and fired pepper balls into drainage tunnels and wooded areas.
  • Authorities briefly detained Catalina Mancera, Kneeland's girlfriend, who later cooperated, while the Dallas Cowboys established a memorial fund to support Mancera, who is pregnant, as family and friends feared he would hurt himself.
  • The search centered on an office-park area and nearby fields where a man whose car was flagged down by troopers said he saw the suspect run, and about 30 minutes later the search ended.
