2 Snipers Ambush, Kill 5 Officers, Injure 7 in Dallas Following Peaceful Protest

Dallas Police Shooting

It is the the deadliest attack on U.S. law enforcement since Sept. 11, 2001, NBC News reports

By NBC 5 Staff

Five officers are dead — four Dallas police officers and one Dallas Area Rapid Transit officer — after two snipers ambushed and opened fire on police at the end of a peaceful protest against nationwide officer-involved shootings Thursday night, officials say.

“This is a terrible blow to the city of Dallas. This is a terrible blow to the United States of America,” Rawlings said on the NBC’s “Today” show.

Rawlings said the suspect involved in an overnight standoff with police died after officers used explosives to “blast him out.”

Rawlings said he was not sure how the suspect died or what weapons were found on him. He said police have swept the area where the standoff took place and found no explosives.

  1. Hey PJ, I noticed you never linked to an article about the event that precipitated this “peaceful protest”. Here, let me help:

    White cop shot some black guy at point blank range for no apparent reason, and OOPS! It was caught on camera!

  2. 12:25 – reference to “a peaceful protest against nationwide officer-involved shootings” isn’t enough for you?? Surely you aren’t advocating justification. If you are, get your head examined.

  3. 1225 probably has gotten a few tickets and is bitter. I bet you wouldn’t last a single day without a cop protecting your rights everyday. I think police should stop doing any proactive enforcement and let crime skyrocket like it is in Chicago, 70% percent increase! Well done… If you have a gun and aren’t allowed to have one you should expect to be shot.

    Do everyone a favor and post your liberal crap elsewhere I think everyone is getting tired of it and more importantly I hope your not from Ridgewood because its just embarrassing.
