A civilian was shot as well, condition unknown. Sounds like it happened outside their training facility. From wfaa-

DALLAS - DALLAS -- At least one firefighter and one civilian were shot when a gunman opened fire on paramedics in East Dallas late Monday morning.

The one is Austin has been arrested. The guy that posted his picture as he was arrested speculates he is with antifa. Don't hold me to that, though.
