A Dallas Police officer shot an assault suspect late Saturday night

Dallas (WBAP/KLIF) – Just before midnight Saturday night an off duty Dallas Police officer in full uniform saw a man with a bladed weapon chasing a screaming woman down a street in Old East Dallas. The officer got between them, and during the confrontation with the armed man shot him at least once. The suspect is now hospitalized in what’s reported as stable condition, and likely will be charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. No one else was hurt.
