Crazed Gunman In Armored Van Opens Fire on Dallas Police Station


After a standoff lasting several hours, the suspect was shot by a sniper and is believed dead, although no official statement has been made to that effect. Due to the threat of explosives, police are currently using robots to assess if the man, who identified himself as 35-year-old James Boulware, is still alive and what maybe be inside the vehicle.

Boulware’s mother, Jeannine, declined to comment Saturday morning when she was reached at her Dallas home by phone.

“I don’t want to talk to the media. I want to talk to my son. I want my grandson to talk to his father. Do not call this number again,” she said.

The suspect’s father, Jim Boulware of Carrollton, said his son had blamed police for losing custody of his own child, who is now in middle school.

But despite previous threats of violence, he said he never expected anything like Saturday’s events.

“He blames the police for taking his son away from him,” Jim Boulware said. “I tried to tell him that the police are just doing their job.”

The suspect’s father said he saw his son Friday night and there was no indication of trouble.

He did say he had noticed a strange van, but he said his son’s plans had been to buy a van he could live in if necessary and head to a friend’s place in West Texas.
