Dallas police shooting suspect: Here's what we know about Corey Cobb-Bey
Police say 30-year-old Corey Cobb ambushed Officer Darron Burks while he was sitting in his marked police car outside of the Oak Cliff Community Center.
The dash camera video shows Cobb-Bey getting out of his white sedan on Interstate 35E in Lewisville with his hands up.
Moments later, he reaches back into the car and comes out with a shotgun in his left hand.
He can be seen waving at officers as they yell for him to drop the gun.
The video shows several officers firing shots at Cobb-Bey after he walks toward them with the gun pointed in their direction.
Cobb-Bey died at the scene.
Officers later recovered two shotguns from the crime scene in Lewisville and two handguns from the crime scene in Oak Cliff. One of the shotguns had a drum magazine.
Police said a total of six officers fired shots at Cobb-Bey, hitting him multiple times.
They will be placed on administrative leave as part of a routine investigation.
The Dallas County District Attorney’s Office, the Dallas Police Special Investigations Unit, and the Office of Community Police Oversight will all conduct independent investigations.
No officers were hurt in the exchange of gunfire after the chase.
