Dallas Officer Crosses The Line

Patrons and merchants on Lower Greenville cried foul early Sunday when a Dallas officer fired 13 rounds from a pepper ball gun over the heads of bar goers.

Police say the veteran officer violated policy by even having the gun on the streets. There are stict rules for deployment and use.

Business owners worry the incident may scare away customers, who are just now beginning to return amid safety concerns in the nightlife district.
