September 5, 20187 yr https://www.texasmonthly.com/news/man-arrested-after-repeatedly-crashing-truck-into-dallas-tv-news-station-building/ Police arrested a man after he repeatedly crashed his truck into KDFW FOX 4’s downtown Dallas building early Wednesday morning, the broadcast news station has reported. Details remain scarce, but according to KDFW the man rammed his truck into the floor-to-ceiling windows on the first floor of the station’s office on North Griffin Street, jumped out, and started ranting. The station’s own photojournalists filmed him placing boxes filled with stacks of paper beside a door to the building, and the papers were strewn all over the ground nearby. KDFW reporter Brandon Todd told the station that the man said something about “high treason,” and ranted about a sheriff’s department as he held the papers up against the building’s windows. FOX 4 NEWS ✔@FOX4 A man crashed a truck into the side of our building this morning. He jumped out and started ranting. He’s in custody now but the bomb squad is on its way. He left behind a suspicious bag. Most have been evacuated & a few are working to keep the news on air from a secure location. 7:00 AM - Sep 5, 2018 415 725 people are talking about this Twitter Ads info and privacy Police arrived and arrested the man at the scene. No one was injured. The man also left behind a suspicious bag, prompting investigators to evacuate the station. Dallas police and K-9 units are sweeping the building to ensure there is nothing dangerous inside. According to KDFW, some employees stayed behind in a secure part of the building so they could keep the station on air during its GoodDay morning news show. The incident comes as journalists across the country face severe threats and violence. Earlier this week, the FBI arrested a manfor allegedly making a series of phone calls to the Boston Globe threatening to kill reporters, calling them the “enemy of the people,” parroting a phrase that President Donald Trump has frequently used to describe journalists. In June, five people were killed after a man armed with a shotgun and smoke grenades attacked the Capital Gazette newspaper offices in Maryland—the man had previously sued the newspaper for defamation. At the moment it remains unclear what motivated the man in Dallas to ram his truck into KDFW.
