Two Sought After Shots Fired at Dallas PD South Central Station

Dallas police are trying to find two people who fled in a dark two-door car after multiple rounds were fired at the South Central Patrol substation around 5:30 a.m. Sunday morning.

Nine shots were fired, but only three hit the substation in the 1900 block of East Camp Wisdom Road in southeast Oak Cliff, according to a Dallas police tweet.

The two people fled east on East camp Wisdom Road after the shots were fired, police said. A more detailed description of the two people was not immediately available. 

Dallas police public information officer Carlos Almeida said no officers were injured. [[414813743,C]]

In a news release, department officials said the shots were fired from a vehicle traveling east on Camp Wisdom Road.

Chopper 5 flew over the building and was able to see a shattered window on one side of the building.

The department said the perimeter officer observed muzzle flashes but did not see the suspect vehicle.

Numerous police officers collected evidence around the building.

There are no arrests but if the person is caught, they will face an offense of Aggravated Assault on a Public Servant.

This latest violence towards police comes less than a year after a man shot and killed four Dallas police officers and a Dallas Area Rapid Transit officer in downtown Dallas. Nine other officers were injured on July 7, 2016.

In 2015, James Boulware opened fire on Dallas Police headquarters. The shootout shattered multiple windows at the headquarters building near the department's information desk. No officers were injured. Police snipers shot Boulware after a standoff in Hutchins, killing him.
