Police made four arrests in connection with the shooting. The four suspects were identified as Kejuan Lewis, 17, Taqualon Jones, 19, Bryce Jones, 19, and Akil Anderson, 19.

The four suspects are now facing capital murder charges after a Dallas County grand jury indicted them on Thursday. Police have not revealed any motive behind their crimes.

This year’s Fourth of July weekend saw multiple shooting incidents all over the city. In the Hamilton Park shooting, one witness described the evening as a “Wild, Wild West moment,” with many residents running for cover from the multiple gunshots.

Dallas Police Chief Eddie Garcia said that the alcohol-fuelled parties over the holiday were a contributing factor to the violence that occurred over the Fourth of July weekend.
