Telegraph | David Cameron 'shocked and horrified'
British Prime Minister David Cameron is "shocked and horrified" by the shootings, Downing Street has said.
The Prime Minister is expected to discuss the tragic incident with
Barack Obama on the margins of the Nato summit which both are attending
in the Polish capital, Warsaw.
The deaths - and injuries to six other officers - have been blamed on
snipers who opened fire during a protest in the Texas city over this
week's fatal police shootings of two black men in Louisiana and
Minnesota.
Mr Cameron's official spokeswoman told a regular Westminster media
briefing: "The Prime Minister is shocked and horrified by the terrible
scenes we have seen overnight.
"He is due to be at the Warsaw summit and I think he will have the opportunity to talk to President Obama about it directly.
"I think he would echo what the President has said, which is that
these attacks on police officers simply doing their job and trying to
keep people safe are horrific and cannot be justified."
