“The Dallas Police Department tweeted an image of a man they said was one of the suspects and asked the public for help in finding him. The photo is of an African-American man wearing a camouflage T-shirt and carrying what appears to be a rifle. Texas is an open carry state, which means it is legal for those with permits to openly carry weapons.” CNN
This is one of our suspects. Please help us find him! pic.twitter.com/Na5T8ZxSz6

However there is evidence he is not one of the suspects:

The protests followed the horrific murder of two black males in the last two days by cops for no apparent reason in a continuing pattern of violence against blacks.
“Police have cornered a suspect in a commercial garage after the shootings of 11 police officers near the end of a protest in Dallas over shootings by police of black men in Louisiana and Minnesota, police Chief David Brown told reporters.
“The shooting happened as protests were underway about two blocks from Dealey Plaza. Video showed the crowd suddenly sprinting away.” CNN
One suspect is in custody. Another, possibly in a bulletproof vest & tactical gear, is still at large.
