Cedar Hill police have released body and dash camera video of officers firing on a man who is accused of shooting and injuring a doctor at a local medical center.
Police on Tuesday, July 25, responded to an active shooter incident just after 12:15 p.m. at the Methodist Family Health Center of Beltline Road. Officers found one victim, a physician, on the ground with a gunshot wound.
According to police, an officer saw the suspected shooter with a long gun get into a vehicle. The suspect crashed just moments later.
During a news conference on Wednesday, July 26, police said the suspect, later identified as 34-year-old Bryan McGee, fired his gun at the responding officers, who then returned fire. Police then said McGee dropped his gun and the shooting stopped. McGee then picked the gun back up and officers began firing again, according to police.
Cedar Hill Police Chief Ely Reyes got emotional describing his officers' actions.
“I’m proud of them. It’s not an easy thing to do," Reyes said. "It’s going to be a tough situation for them. At this time it’s going to be important for us to look out for their mental health and welfare.”
