Officer Darron Burks Killed in Dallas Shootout

A tragic incident in Oak Cliff resulted in the death of Dallas police officer Darron Burks and the wounding of two other officers. This occurred outside the 'For Oak Cliff' community center, a nonprofit dedicated to uplifting the local community. Officers responded to an officer-in-distress call and found Burks shot in his patrol vehicle; subsequent gunfire exchange with the suspect led to further injuries. The suspect fled but was later killed by police in Lewisville after brandishing a long gun. The community and police department are mourning the loss, with flags at city facilities flown at half-staff. An ongoing investigation is expected to provide more details in the coming days.
