Shooting reported at Dallas bank
Source: msnbc

DALLAS - Shots were fired inside a Dallas bank and several people might have been wounded, local media reported Monday as police and ambulances raced to the scene.

KTVT said Dallas Fire-Rescue reported that at least three individuals were shot. One of them, the alleged gunman, was hospitalized "with a gunshot wound to the head," KTVT said. The conditions of the three were not immediately known.

2. Mental hospital is right up the road there.
That's an interesting area of town. On the border of a really nice area, but it's dicey right at this spot.

4. If you read the article you know that updates will be made as more comes in.
So that information would appear to be forthcoming.

5. What difference
does it make where he got the gun? The 2 people he shot are in stable condition and, pray god, will make a full recovery, the POS shooter took the coward way out and shot himself in the head, hopefully he will die and save the taxpayers the cost of a trial. We all know about your agenda, how about some sympathy for the victims?

14. How do you know
he's a fucking teabagger? I read the story and I didn't see anything about his politics. Do you think all teabaggers are violent? I work with a lot of Tea Party people at my station house in Las Vegas and these people condemn violence against other people whether it be from the left or right.

In fact I feel at home with them because we debate the issues calmly and they agree with some of my positions and I agree with some of their postitions.

8. Not a bank robbery (as first reported).
This was a dispute between the shooter and 2 people at a financial services office. Guns are prevalent in Texas (especially Dallas) and shootings are a normal, daily news item here. In this particular incident, too bad the cops weren't better shots.
