Dallas: Five Police Officers Shot Dead; Obama Condemns "Vicious, Calculated and Despicable Attack" | Democracy Now!: In Dallas, Texas, five police officers have been shot dead and six others wounded.

Authorities have identified the gunman as Micah Xavier Johnson. Police say he was killed by a police robot after a standoff.
