A suspect charged in the fatal Dallas shooting of a Houston-area real estate agent has been released on bond. The case stems from an April 5 shooting outside a downtown Dallas bar that left 28-year-old Ashlee Long dead, and another man injured.
Dallas Shooting Victim from the Houston Area
Ashlee Long, a real estate agent from the Richmond-Rosenberg area southwest of Houston, was visiting Dallas with friends when the tragic incident occurred.
According to police, the group had just left a downtown bar shortly after 2 a.m. when the situation escalated.
Surveillance footage captured a brief encounter between Long’s companion, 36-year-old William Kistler, and a passing Mercedes-Benz on Main Street. Dallas police said Kistler “reached out and brushed his hand along the passenger side of the passing Mercedes.” The car’s passenger—later identified as Kendrick Finch, 34—allegedly exited the vehicle with a gun and opened fire.
Both Long and Kistler were shot. Long later died from her injuries at the hospital.
