Police: Dallas chief’s son killed cop, other man

LANCASTER, Texas — Investigators in Texas say the 27-year-old son of Dallas Police Chief David Brown is believed to have been the shooter in the death of a suburban police officer and another man.

Dallas County Sheriff’s Deputy Lupe Valez says David Brown Jr. appears to have shot 23-year-old Jeremy McMillan and then Officer Craig Shaw when he and others responded to a call of shots fired Sunday night.

The officers returned fire, and Brown was killed.

Lancaster Police Chief Keith Humphrey has said Shaw was the first officer killed in the line of duty in the small city about 15 miles south of Dallas.
