When the officer tried to intervene, “he was rushed by the gentleman with the rock,” [police chief Randall] Blankenbaker said. The officer moved away, but the suspect “came toward him again, so he discharged his weapon a number of times.”

Police do not think Diamond had any weapon other than the large rock. Blakenbaker said he could not comment on reports that Diamond asked the officer to shoot him.

The officer will be placed on administrative leave, following police department protocol.

Dallas Police Chief David Brown was among the commanders who went to Love Field in response to the shooting.

The gunfire occurred outside, near the curb in front of baggage claim. But passengers in the terminal heard the shots and began to run in a panic.
