Based on local reporting, there is a BOLO out on a yellow van with Mexican license plates that sped away from the scene when the shots were fired.

Clear the area and then ventilate the van.

Shoot a stun grenade through the windshield and be done with it.

Note to self: If you ever become a moron and get into standoff with police, do so in secure location.

Interesting. Wonder what's going on inside the van. Drugs? Kidnapping?
To: Bikers4Bush
I think that'd be dangerous in such a small area since flash-bang's do throw off alot of heat, which becomes even more problematic if there's a hostage envolved.

Can someone keep us posted? Fox broke away and I doubt if we will hear anymore on this.

Praying for the LEOs. This is awful.
I agree that the officers should back off, and a lovely hand grenade thrown inside the van.

The van was reported to have been there all night, with the motor running. Geesh!

Could be but the blue van was there all night with the engine running. Reportedly, someone noticed it last night and was alarmed to see it still there this morning. Wish they would put more out regarding the yellow van. Family and dear friends with Dallas PD...we're not that far removed from GP for those FReepers not familiar with No. TX

Better to have burns than be dead if you're the hostage.
