www.privateofficer.com — A suspected bank robber was fatally shot Tuesday inside a bank after exchanging gunfire with a security officer, police said.
Police said that the suspect entered a branch of Chase Bank in south Dallas near the Veterans Affairs Medical Center Tuesday shortly before 2 p.m. He shot at the security guard, who was grazed in the upper body, police said. The security officer then exchanged gunfire with the robbery suspect as customers and employees fled the bank.
FBI agents and police tactical units also responded to the call. As the tactical unit was setting up, another group of customers and employees ran from the building including the security officer who told police that the suspect was still inside but that he was unsure if he had been injured during the gunfire.
Members of the tactical unit entered the bank after seeing a woman hiding under a desk, police said. Officers then found the body of the suspect whose identity has not been confirmed. Police said the suspect sustained a fatal gunshot wound in the gunfight.
“We’re continuing to interview witnesses, employees and the security guard,” Dallas Police Chief David Kunkle said.
The security guard was reported to be in good condition.
