Carjackers In Dallas Picked The Wrong Undercover Cop To Jack, Get Into Shootout

The three men arrested Wednesday in the shooting and carjacking of a Dallas police officer fired at the officer nine times at a close distance, police said Friday. At a news conference, police Chief Eddie García provided new insight into the shooting and shared surveillance footage of the incident. According to the chief, police believe the men traveled from Shreveport, La., to steal cars and unwittingly approached Officer Nathaniel Chapman’s unmarked vehicle a little before 1 a.m. Wednesday as he was conducting undercover surveillance in northwest Dallas.
