According to police, two people were arguing when one of them pulled out a handgun and shot the other in the right side of his torso. Police said another man came forward to try to disarm the shooter, but the suspect shot him, too.

Meanwhile, the gunman, who police have not identified, was arrested and taken to the Dallas County jail.
