Still sounds like witnesses are claiming 4 suspects.
The van doesn’t look like anything special. The media keeps calling the fold down step, “armor” but their mediots.
Yes, the reporting is starting to look overblown. No police casualties. The van looks like a home conversion with gun ports and a step platform down the side. No obvious armor. The police can only confirm one suspect who is/was driving the van. The suspect is identified as a white male. Regardless of the actual facts, this is an useful attack profile for the Administration pushing the domestic terrorism angle.
The DPD reported that their fire was *not* penetrating the van. The van appears to be a Lenco armored conversion, like this one.

It could possibly *be* that very van from eBay, too.
Also, WFAA just reported that the DPD bomb squad robot attempted to move one of the planted bags and it detonated.
