Colbie Hoffman, who was charged in the deadly crash that killed a Grand Prairie police officer, pleaded guilty to two felony counts.
, 33, followed the car for 5 or 6 miles in a chase that looped onto the Bush Turnpike service road before colliding with the rear of another squad car near Dickey Road, causing his vehicle to roll and crash into a pole. Hoffman fled the scene of the crash.Days later, police said officers matched a car in Hoffman’s driveway to the one involved in the crash and obtained a search warrant for the home.
While the warrant was being executed, Hoffman called Dallas police, told them he was the wanted driver and said he “preferred not to be arrested in Grand Prairie” before turning himself in in Dallas, Grand Prairie police Chief Daniel Scesney said. Grand Prairie officers who, like Tsai, previously worked at the Los Angeles Police Department, used Tsai’s handcuffs when they took Hoffman into custody.During Tsai’s memorial service, the chief said he knew Tsai to have a “true servant’s heart.” Tsai’s colleagues remembered him as a loyal, hardworking and funny man, and Grand Prairie officers filled the courtroom ahead of Thursday’s sentencing.
“Our nation lost a hero last night,” Scesney said the day after the crash. “Tsai represented the very best among us and laid down his life protecting this city and all those who live within it. Our hearts are broken but we are grateful to all those who have extended their thoughts and prayers to Brandon’s family, including his entire extended family who wear blue.”, overcoming an early legislative hurdle in an effort to curtail widespread issues with fraudulent tags.
