At least three police officers were shot in downtown Dallas, Texas, on Thursday night following a march protesting recent police shootings of black men. CNN reported that three officers from the Dallas Area Rapid Transit police were shot, but Dallas’ Fox 43 News reported as many as six officers were hit by gunfire coming from a nearby rooftop. Like the fatal shooting of a black motorist in Minnesota on Wednesday, the chaotic scene was captured by a bystander on Facebook Live video. Several hundred people had been at the rally, according to reports. The extent of injuries is not yet known.
