THE SUSPECT KILLED LATER THAT NIGHT AT THE END OF A POLICE CHASE. FOX FOUR'S DIONNE ANGLIN LIVE WITH MORE ON HOW THE LOSS IS AFFECTING THE DEPARTMENT AND THE COMMUNITY. DION HI THERE. BLAKE. IT HAS BEEN AN OUTPOURING OF COMMUNITY SUPPORT FOR THE FAMILY OF OFFICER DARREN BURKS THAT AS THE DALLAS POLICE DEPARTMENT MOVES FORWARD WHILE COPING WITH GRIEF. THIS IS A TIME TO UNITE AND FACE THE REALITIES. WHEN WE SAY WE DON'T KNOW IF WE'RE COMING HOME. THAT'S WHAT IT REALLY. THAT'S THE RAW REALITY. STRONG WORDS REFLECTING STRONG EMOTIONS TO BE EXECUTED ON OUR STREETS SIMPLY BECAUSE OF THE UNIFORM HE'S WEARING. WE NEED TO THINK ABOUT THAT.
