A driver has reportedly crashed a truck into the Fox 4 studios in Dallas, Texas, according to reports on Sept. 5.
The station said that when the driver got out of the vehicle, he began “ranting.”
“He’s in custody now but the bomb squad is on its way,” Fox4 said on Twitter. “He left behind a suspicious bag.”

It added, “Most have been evacuated & a few are working to keep the news on air from a secure location.”
The station reported that police were investigating to see whether there was anything dangerous in the bag, and no injuries were reported. The man was then filmed placing boxes on the side of the building that were “filled with stacks of paper.”
The man also said something about “high treason,” according to Fox4 reporter Brandon Todd. He also ranted about the sheriff’s department and held up papers.
Photos taken of the scene show a large quantity of papers strewn about the sidewalk outside the studio.
“Scary moment this morning when a man drove his truck into our building,” Fox4 reporter Shannon Murray wrote on Twitter. “We evacuated while the bomb squad is investigating.”
