Britt (Kelly Thiebaud) was upset with him for lying to the police and involving Rocco (Finn Carr). Sidwell (Carlo Rota) didn’t like all the attention that Dalton had created for their operation. So, he lost control and shot Dalton in the chest.
Goddard’s time on the ABC soap has officially ended. The actor hasn’t spoken out about his exit on social media.
