At around 10:30am Thursday morning, a Dallas Independent School District police officer was flagged down along LBJ Freeway and advised of a man walking on the highway, possibly in distress.

The DISD officer picked up the man, and transported him to the Walmart parking lot for safety.

As the DISD officer was dropping him off, a shooting occurred. The officer was shot.

A nearby officer arrived and applied a tourniquet to the injured officer, who was shot in the lower torso.

According to scanner traffic, one person was taken into custody in a nearby neighborhood. Police have not confirmed if it is the suspect, but did confirm one person is in custody.

Dallas Fire Rescue transported the injured officer with a police escort to Parkland Hospital for emergency surgery. The officer’s condition is not known at this time.

The Chief of the Dallas ISD Police Department has identified the officer as Justin Jones, a 39-year-old man. He has served with the DISD Police Department for 16 years. He is currently assigned as an officer at White High School.

Dallas ISD PD, Dallas PD, DART PD, DPS, Dallas County Sheriff’s Office, and the ATF remain on scene investigating the incident.

At around 3:30am, Arlington PD officers responded to an apartment complex in the 900 block of Terrell Circle to investigate what was initially reported as a fight.

When officers arrived on scene, several people waved them down and pointed them to three men who had gunshot wounds.

All three men — ages 23, 36, and 45 — were transported to area hospitals. All three are expected to survive.

Based on APD’s investigation, it appears two suspects showed up to a party at the location and started a fight. During the fight, one of the suspects retrieved a gun and fired multiple shots. The two suspects then got into a vehicle and left.

As officers were pulling up to the scene, they saw a pickup truck leaving the area at a high rate of speed. Witnesses later identified the pickup as the suspect vehicle.

A BOLO with a description of the pickup was sent out to all sides of town and neighboring agencies. A short time later, we were notified that Mansfield PD and the Tarrant County Sheriff’s Office located the vehicle in Mansfield, made a traffic stop, and detained two men inside.

Following a field show up with a witness, who confirmed the two men were the suspects from the shooting, both men were arrested.

19-year-old Alexander Rubio, who was driving the pickup, was booked into the Arlington City Jail on three counts of Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon and one count of Fleeing a Police Officer. 40-year-old Cristian Rubio Lora was charged with three counts of Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon.
