Initially investigators did not believe that the shooting at Hair World Salon, in the 2200 block of Royal Lane, was a hate crime. But after conducting what called a 'consistent review of offense reports' detectives came to the conclusion that three shootings at Asian run businesses may be connected, with the driver in each driving a similar vehicle.
Police say the incident at Hair World happened when a man dressed all in black opened fire at the salon, then drove off in a maroon minivan. Garcia said investigators found that a similar vehicle was reported to be involved in two other recent shootings, including an April 2 drive-by in the area where the salon is located. No one was injured in either of those shootings.
Garcia said the vehicle was also linked to a drive-by shooting on May 10 about 25 miles southeast of the shopping center where Hair World is located. The three women who were shot at the salon were taken to a hospital with injuries that weren't life-threatening. The salon is in the heart of Koreatown, which is in a part of the city that was transformed in the 1980s from an industrial area to a thriving district with shopping, dining, markets, medical offices and salons.

Police arrest suspect in Dallas hair salon shooting; FBI opens hate crime investigationPolice in Dallas have arrested a suspect in connection with a shooting at a Dallas hair salon last week after the FBI said it had opened a federal hate crime investigation into the shooting. So did the FBI opening an investigation put pressure on the Dallas PD? I hope so. I also hope this dirtbag gets the maximum penalty for this. Which should be quite a lot since they can add the hate crime penalty.
