Two snipers shoot 11 police officers and leave bombs all over the place during Dallas protests

Two snipers have shot 11 police officers - killing at least four - and may have planted a bomb in downtown Dallas.

The two gunmen opened fire from 'elevated positions', picking off officers 'ambush style' as they manned a protest over the deaths of two black men, police chief David Brown said.

A gruesome video shows a heroic policeman taking on one of gunmen, but being gunned down by the shooter before being shot again execution-style, from point-blank range.

Both suspects have been caught and taken into custody, with one detained following a shootout with police.

As they were detained, they are said to have told officers: 'The end is coming... and there are bombs all over the place.'

Officers found a suspicious package near where one of the gunmen was caught and a bomb squad are dealing with it.

Police said two people are being questioned after they were spotted speeding away from the scene of the shooting in a black Mercedes. An officer saw one of the pair hurriedly putting a camouflage bag in the back of the car before driving off 'at a high rate of speed'.

Another man, named as Mark Hughes, was pictured walking through Dallas with what appeared to be an assault rifle. He turned himself into police after cops made a public appeal and his family said he was an innocent bystander.

Four police officers have died and as many as three others are in a critical condition. A member of the public was also shot.

'Our worst nightmare has happened,' Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings said. 'It is a heartbreaking moment for the city of Dallas.'

Human Life Matters and always will.

Playing the race victim, sexual orientation victim or law enforcement victim cards won’t lead to anything but bigger government, more attacks on freedom with ‘rights’ or ‘hate crime’ or ‘gun crime’ laws, etc. etc.

Remember here when Hussein as president, went after that Boston area policeman who arrested his friend from Harvard on drunk and disorderly?

There was a White House Beer Summit?

And it was predicted then here at FR that Hussein would start the race wars in this country?

We heard it here first.

When his best buddy at the Joyce Foundation was a terrorist whose group wanted a race war it was good bet he would be similarly predisposed.

Hillary and Comey getting too much media exposure. Have to get that story off the front page.

Charlie Manson wanted to start a race war, go into hiding while it was being fought, then emerge as a world leader after it was over.

When the Won first took office, the Cambridge cops were called about a possible break in, but it was a black man trying to get into his own home. There had been break ins in the area. Then the guy freaks out and the cops arrest him. He calls his friend the Won, and the won announces the cops acted stupidly. Yes, this was the start.

I knew that the protest would be described as “peaceful” apart from the murders. Leftist protests, no matter how violent, are always described a s “peaceful.”

Nevermind 18 hours alter, I was stunned when viewing her with the guy dying right beside her, and then her little girl seemed so composed as well. Something very wrong with this one. You could also tell the cop was distraught as well implying in a far more strained voice he told him not to reach for anything.

Fox just reported that the last suspect killed himself.

With or without assistance?

Dead men tell no tales.

Saw that video on the TV news, most bizarre thing that I have seen in quite some time.
