Dallas Gunman Kills 3 From Car Sunroof

DALLAS (AP) - A gunman armed with an assault rifle stood through the sunroof of a Jaguar and opened fire on another moving vehicle early Tuesday, killing three men and critically wounding a fourth, police said.
Authorities were searching for the suspect, who was a passenger in a car described as a white or silver Jaguar with fancy wheels, said Cpl. Max Geron, a Dallas police spokesman. The gunman had at least one accomplice - the driver, Geron said.
The shootings happened about 2 a.m. on a highway frontage road near the Southern Methodist University campus.
A police officer waiting at a traffic light at the intersection witnessed the shootings and stopped to help when the second car crashed, police Sgt. Gil Cerda said. Police policy prohibited the officer from pursuing the fleeing vehicle because he already had a prisoner from an unrelated case in his back seat, Geron said.
No motive has been determined, but the shooting happened soon after a fight was reported at a nearby bar. A car reported at the bar resembled the one from which the shots were fired, and police were investigating for a possible link, Geron said.
Killed were Eddie Pech, 36; Bernardo Andrade, 21; and Favio Andrade, 19, all of Dallas, Geron said. Another man was taken to Baylor University Medical Center, where he was listed in "very critical" condition, the spokesman said. His identity was not released.
