A suspected gunman who ambushed Dallas police headquarters Saturday
morning was shot and is believed to be dead, the city's police chief
said.
SWAT snipers shot at the suspect through the windshield of his van after a standoff with him, Police Chief David Brown said. But because officers found bags with explosives that had been "spread out all over police headquarters," police were not approaching the van, he said.
"The suspect, during negotiations, expressed that the van he was traveling in was rigged with explosives," Brown said. "Our officers are not approaching that vehicle, but instead, our bomb technicians are deploying the robot and plan to detonate specific areas around the van to ensure that it's not rigged to explode."
