Witnesses told officers somebody in one vehicle shot multiple rounds at another vehicle.

That's when Seals got shot, lost control of the vehicle and wrecked, authorities said.

Witnesses told police that a person in an unknown type of vehicle opened fire and fled the scene.

Wallace was transported to Dallas Police Headquarters and interviewed by homicide detectives Thursday.

Authorities have not released additional details on how they connected Wallace to the deadly shooting.
