The Dallas Police Department says a child has died after a shooting at an east Oak Cliff apartment complex.
At 2:16pm, Dallas police officers responded to the Signature at Southern Oaks apartment complex, 3303 Southern Oaks Blvd, for reports of a shooting.

The juvenile suspect ran away from the scene, but was later taken into custody at a nearby complex. Charges have not been released.
The incident is still under investigation.
