The facts
The Dallas Police Department said shootings were reported at about 12:20 a.m. on Elm Street, 1:05 a.m. on Main Street and 1:35 a.m. on South Crowdus Street. Four people were pronounced dead and 15 injured; no officers were hurt. [1]
The police chief told CBS Texas he did not believe the three shootings were connected. The department’s investigation was continuing, and AP reported investigators initially were still assessing links. [2][3]
The department’s written update said suspects remained outstanding. CBS Texas later reported one suspect was taken into custody and the chief mentioned other arrests, but the outlet said the connection to any particular shooting was unclear. [1][2]
Texas Public Radio independently reported the four deaths and at least 15 injuries, citing the Dallas police chief; police did not identify those who died. [4]
Still unconfirmed
- The motive, final relationship among the three shootings, suspect identities and any charges remain unknown.
- Police accounts differ on whether suspects remained outstanding or some people had been detained; which incident any detention concerns is not established.
- The condition of all injured people has not been reported.
