David is a patrol officer with the Dallas Police Department. While patrolling southeast Dallas, David sees a man running out of the house on the corner of main and 3rd Street. A woman stumbles out of the house
She is yelling, "Help! I have been robbed!" David immediately reports the crime in progress to dispatch and requests a back up. He observes the man enter a 2001 dark green Chevrolet pickup. As the suspect pulls the vehicle onto the roadway, David asks dispatch to verify the license plate on the vehicle. Dispatch advises David that the vehicle belongs to Lonny Smith who is well known by all of Dallas police as a hardened criminal who has fired his weapon on more than three separate occasions in a battle to resist arrest.
