Dallas Shooting Update: Gunfire At During Sunday Vigil, Shooter Still At Large
Gunfire on Sunday night interrupted a vigil in Dallas dedicated to two people killed and wounded from a weekend shooting.
The vigil was held for Kevin Berry, one of the two people killed in a homecoming shooting Saturday night near Texas A&M University-Commerce. Police were called to the vigil around 8 p.m. after a reported disturbance that had escalated to gunfire.
Despite the large crowd, no one was reportedly harmed, though multiple vehicles were damaged.
The gunman had fled the scene before police arrived and has not been identified by witnesses or police, but has been described as a lone male shooter.
Hunt County Sheriff Randy Meeks said the shooter could have been the same one from Saturday night’s shooting. Meeks, meanwhile, expressed frustration with the investigation into weekend’s shootings.
“I was told there's 750 people here approximately at the time that the shooting happened but nobody wants to speak with us,” Meeks said according to NBC News. “We don't even have a vehicle description, we don't have a name, a nickname, we don't have nothing to go on to try to locate the shooter.”
Investigators are encouraging anyone with information about the shooter or either shootings to reach out to local police.
