Video Appears to Show Dallas Gunman Shooting Officer at Close Range

An unedited, extremely graphic bystander video provided to KDFW and played on air appeared to show a deadly shootout between a suspect in Thursday’s shooting in Dallas and a police officer.

The video, credited to Randy Biart, shows a figure dressed in civilian attire carrying what appears to be rifle crouching behind pillars and firing shots. A second individual, wearing what looks like a police uniform, enters the screen and several shots are fired as the first person runs toward him.

After a moment, the second individual lies motionless on the ground and the first one flees.

According to Dallas Police, they have been exchanging gunfire with a suspect not currently in custody for 45 minutes. While the video has not been verified, it certainly appears to show a portion of that deadly shootout.
