Three people suffered non-life-threatening injuries in a shooting at the State Fair of Texas on Saturday night in Dallas, police said.
A suspect who ran away was captured by officers and taken into custody, along with a gun that might have been used in the attack, said Dallas Police Department Sr. Cpl. Melinda Gutierrez.
Exact conditions for the injured were unavailable.
The attack prompted authorities and organizers to evacuate Dallas' Fair Park, southeast of downtown, on the kind of busy weekend night that can draw more than 100,000 fairgoers.
Gunfire erupted about 7:45 p.m. at the fair's food court, also known as the Tower Building, named for its key Art Deco feature.
