Dallas police are looking for a 33-year-old man after gunfire was reported inside a home on White Ingram Parkway on Tuesday morning. By the time officers arrived, the shooter was gone. Authorities have identified the suspect as John Wesley Wolfe and say he faces charges that include reckless conduct, family violence and aggravated assault. Investigators are asking anyone who knows where Wolfe might be to contact the department.
What police say
According to FOX 5 Atlanta, officers were dispatched after a 911 caller reported shots fired at a residence on White Ingram Parkway. When they reached the address, the scene had cleared and Wolfe was no longer there. The station reports that the Dallas Police Department shared the details with local media and that investigators are treating the case as a domestic-violence incident.
How to report tips
Per the Dallas Police Department, anyone with information is urged to call the department at 770-443-8100. For emergencies, authorities say to call 911. The department's website also lists non-emergency contact information and the location of police headquarters on Main Street.
The charges and what they mean
Wolfe is wanted on counts that include aggravated assault and family violence, offenses that can be enhanced when a firearm or other deadly weapon is involved. As outlined in Georgia's aggravated assault statute, Justia notes that such convictions can result in prison time. Under the state definition of family violence, found in Justia, these cases may also trigger protective-order procedures intended to shield victims from further harm.
What we know now
The search for Wolfe remains active, and investigators are asking anyone who sees him or has information about his whereabouts to contact the Dallas Police Department immediately. FOX 5 Atlanta reports that the account of the incident was provided by law enforcement. This story will be updated if officials release additional details.
