Four individuals were transported to area medical facilities after being shot in three distinct incidents across Dallas early Sunday morning. All victims are in stable condition, according to Dallas Police Department officials.

The first call for service arrived around 1:15 a.m. in the 900 block of Cleardale Drive. Responders discovered two victims who had been shot. Suspects in that incident fled before officers could apprehend them.

Approximately 20 minutes later, police were dispatched to the 7200 block of Great Trinity Forest Way. A single victim was found shot at that location. The alleged shooter also escaped the scene prior to the arrival of law enforcement.

The third shooting occurred just before 2 a.m. in the 1000 block of East 9th Street. In this instance, police were able to arrest a suspect at the scene. The fourth victim was shot during this incident.

Dallas is about 18 miles south of Plano.

All four victims were taken to local hospitals. Their specific injuries were not detailed in the initial report. The identities of the victims and the arrested suspect have not been released. The motives for the shootings remain under investigation.
