First my thoughts are with everyone there

So initial reports is this was preplanned by a group

If so, may all involved in the group be brought to justice

When did Midland and Odessa become the same city?

It's like Dallas-Ft Worth. It's only 30 minutes from Odessa to Midland.

How many shooters did they catch?

Obviously these two are coordinated attackers.

One in custody.

Two initially in separate vehicles, one of which is supposed to be a postal van. Press conference any minute.

ETA - sounds like a DPS Trooper was the first one shot, then it kicked off.

2-3 LEOs shot.

Mayor saying only ONE ATTACKER.
Suspect deceased.
