Dallas gunman left RB mark in blood during officer killings
Police Chief David Brown said Micah Xavier Johnson, a 25 year old Army veteran, scrawled RB and other markings in blood on a wall during the Dallas protest rampage that killed five officers. Johnson, killed by a bomb blast after negotiations, had studied move and planned a larger attack. Brown cited delusional evidence and said the protest over police shootings may have motivated him. Brown defended using the bomb as necessary to prevent more casualties. Three others were arrested at the scene, unrelated to the shootings. President Obama planned to attend a memorial in Dallas and urged listening between police and activists.
