Chief Brown will hold a press conference in the main lobby at City Hall 1500 Marilla at 3:15 AM press credentials are needed.
 
Unconfirmed report: Driver claims to have C4 explosives he will detonate if police approach the van. The van is rigged with camera's on the exterior. Obviously a lot of planning has gone into this attack. It will be interesting to see who is behind this. Is it ISIS inspired? BLM movement inspired? or something else.
 
What is BLM? It will be interesting to see who did it. Maybe some lone wolves? Some group of white supremacists?
 
Joking around before the press conference... can't hear much though it's not loud enough.
 
They were live outside for a while and now back in at the presser location.
 
I'd be looking for a couple anti-tank rocket launchers and be looking to end this real quick.

Explosives found in bag after gunfire targets Dallas police headquarters

Explosive specialists have found explosives in one of four suspicious bags found near Dallas' police headquarters, Police Chief David Brown said. Police believe there were multiple shooters who may have fired from different locations. "There might be up to four suspects," Brown said
 
So this is a nutter that is mad at the cops because he got arrested 3x for Domestic Violence, lost custody of his child, and now he has hunkered down in an armored van, and is exchanging gunfire with the Dallas PD?
