number of injured, but we think that it is multiple. we are hearing that from the dallas morning news and wfaa, saying that two law enforcement officers have been injured. they are at the level one trauma center. we know that a pretty significant area of downtown dallas, at least three, floor 3, 4ady us -- at least lock radius has been shut down. dallas police are also telling officers to bring their ballistic shields. working,.e not if they are working, for somebody to bring their ballistic shields to the scene so that more officers can have ballistic shields as they are in the process of trying to track down and stop this active shooter. we know shots have been fired. we know a numr

encounter civilians and will only be encountering members of law enforcement who are heavily armed and can, as they say, stabilize and neutralize this individual. jonathan: as we are looking at the pictures, you can see how tense this is. if he has a rifle, he has range on anybody with a pistol. they are all huddling behind cars. you have other officers trying to gain position, continuing to search. this is not only incredibly dangerous but tedious work. you cannot overlook even one no core craney for they are going through that huge parking structure with multiple floors, going through an office nearby. there are reports there were shootings at the omni on the ground loss of. when you hear that many rounds were fired, it will be a while before we know the full effect. we are hearing two officers are down, but i'm wondering the number of people who are down as well.

could be three to eight people wounded in the gunfire? jay: my primary source, a senior reporter at wfaa, he is hunkered down with his photojournalist. i have been monitoring his tweets. he has a lot of followers. i have not heard any specific numbers from him. i do know that cnn is reporting three officers were shot downtown. that is a report just two minutes ago from cnn, three officers have been shot in downtown dallas, dallas area rapid transit officers. we will continue to watch this. we know that you will as well. jay, thank you very much. meanwhile, we want to take you back to what's happening tonight in d.c. crowds have been walking the
