A man has been arrested in Dallas after he drove his truck into the glass front of the Fox4 television station. Witnesses reported he was yelling “high treason” and left a suspicious package at the front door before throwing around the papers that can be seen in the photo below.
Jump below to see the video of the suspect leaving the package and more details on the scene from Fox4’s GoodDay morning crew. The Star-Telegram reports (see below) that Dallas police do not believe he was targeting the media, but that he was trying to bring attention to a story on an officer-involved shooting.

The Star-Telegram has additional information:
The man got out of the truck after hitting the building several times, shattering the floor-to-ceiling windows, and began ranting, according to Fox 4. Witnesses told Star-Telegram media partner WFAA that the man was screaming about “treason.”
But police spokeswoman Debra Webb said hours later that the man appeared to be trying to draw attention to a story of an officer-involved shooting in an interview with Fox 4.
“It doesn’t appear he was targetting the media,” she said.
