Dallas police officers shot and wounded a man early Saturday who fired his gun in the air and ran toward an occupied vehicle, officials said.
Officers responded to 2660 Robert B. Cullum Blvd. around 3:10 a.m. and found a man with a gun. The man refused repeated commands to drop the weapon, police said. He then fired his gun in the air and ran toward an occupied vehicle waiting at a traffic light.

The investigation is ongoing, officials said.
