(CNN)[Breaking news update 12:08 a.m. ET]
Eleven police officers have been shot in Dallas, according to city police Chief David Brown. Three officers have died: one DART officer and two Dallas police officers, Brown said.
[Breaking news update 12:05 a.m. ET]
Police have cornered a suspect in a commercial garage after the shootings of 11 police officers near the end of a protest in Dallas over shootings by police of black men in Louisiana and Minnesota, police Chief David Brown told reporters. The chief said at least two snipers in elevated positions fired "ambush style" on the officers. "Some (were) shot in the back." There also is a search for a possible bomb in the area, Brown said. "This is a very emotional time for our department and the law enforcement community across the country," Brown said. Officials asked the public's help in identifying suspects.

This was not a reaction, it was a plan waiting for a motive /justification to act.

Police have released photos of a potential suspect who was seen carrying an AR in the crowd. It does not look like he was trying to hide. I would not be surprised if that person was just exercising his open carry rights and the shooters were others. But that is just pure speculation on my part.

Careful. Subsequent reports are that guy was seen just as the shooting started and turned his weapon over to a Police officer. It's legal to open carry a rifle in TX.
Wait it out.

First suspect (in the pictures you see on the news) turned him self in. Another suspect was taken into custody after a shootout with Dallas SWAT, suspicious package at the scene being looked at by bomb squad. From @DallasPD Twitter account.

The beginning begins. Seems quite logical that this was a pre-planned ambush just waiting for the trigger event.

I don't think it was the guy in the camo t-shirt. But I don't know anything right now.
What I know is that across the country this asshole of a president has fanned the flames of racial tensions and this is the result.
The Dems will go after guns and the police
The Pugs will go after whatever the NRA tells them to
This will not end well!

One of you please tell the Dallas PD I'd be more than happy to come down as a retired Special Forces Sniper and watch their backs.
Come down on my own dime, need a place to stay. Will bring the necessary tools.
Their website is unreachable.
Thank obama for this.

The first of Farrakhan's 10K soldiers? This was not a Spontaneous shooting. It was coordinated, site specific, elevated for Vantage, and delivered without remorse, or fear of consequence.

No, sir it surely won't end well. And the leaders in our Executive Branch are incapable of leading a cat out of a burning phone booth.
It's going to be a long hot summer. 1968 on steroids.

And who are these "martial law" enforcers who will carry this out? They are the targets by his design.

You're essentially agreeing with what I posted there.

It was a Dallas PD sniper who scored one of the few, if not the only, police sniper kill with a .50 cal last year. This was after a lone shooter (white, I believe), shot up a police station then hopped in his homemade uparmored vehicle. The cop took the shot through armored glass.
But this retired SF sniper will join you. I know that city well.
