Dallas police apprehended two suspects who may have taken part in Thursday night’s shooting of as many as 11 police officers during a protest.
A Dallas Police Department officer observed a person carrying a camouflaged bag walking quickly down Lamar Street. After throwing the bag into the back of a black Mercedes, the vehicle sped off quickly.
Officers reportedly followed the vehicle heading southbound on I-35E. Police are questioning both of the vehicle’s occupants.
