A suspect who reportedly worked security for progressive Texas Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett was shot and killed in a Dallas SWAT standoff Wednesday after reportedly being wanted for impersonating a police officer, according to reports.
"They came across a target that ended up being a barricaded suspect," Comeaux said of the shooting, which happened at Children's Medical Center Dallas.
"At that time, they tried to use tear gas to bring the suspect out. He came out of the vehicle, he had a gun, he pointed a gun toward officers. Officers shot and fired. … He was pronounced dead at the scene," Comeaux said.
Comeaux said the suspect displayed a gun but did not fire it. No officers were injured.
The suspect oversaw teams of security officers at several downtown Dallas hotels and at his church, sources told CBS. The outlet also reported that the suspect drove a replica undercover law enforcement vehicle with license plates allegedly stolen from vehicles outside a military recruiting office.
Fox News Digital has reached out to the Dallas Police Department and Crockett's office for comment but did not immediately receive a response.
