Dallas police confirmed that four individuals were shot and transported to local hospitals in stable condition following three separate incidents that occurred within a short timeframe early Sunday morning. All of the shootings took place during the 1 a.m. hour.

The first incident occurred around 1:15 a.m. in the 900 block of Cleardale Drive. Responding officers found two victims who had been shot by unknown suspects. Those suspects fled the area before law enforcement could apprehend them.

Approximately 20 minutes later, officers were dispatched to the 7200 block of Great Trinity Forest Way. A single victim was found shot at this location. Similar to the first incident, the suspected shooter left the scene prior to the arrival of police.

The third and final shooting happened just before 2 a.m. in the 1000 block of East 9th Street. In this case, law enforcement was able to arrest a suspect at the scene. The other two suspects from the earlier incidents remain at large.

All four victims were taken to area hospitals. Police stated that their conditions are stable. Dallas is about 31 miles east of Fort Worth.

Details regarding the identities of the victims or the specific charges against the arrested suspect were not provided in the initial report.
