According to WFAA, at least one police officer has been shot and the shooter is rumored to be using a rifle. Other outlets are reporting a second officer was shot. No word on anyone’s condition.

The protesters earlier chanted, “Enough is enough,” in reference to the shooting of Alton Sterling in Baton Rouge and in Philando Castile in Minnesota.
