Cooper is awake and talking.

Dallas police are looking for two people who had a shootout in front of the Free Man Cajun and Lounge on Commerce Street.

Cooper, who was inside the building, was hit by a bullet that went through a window.

“It looks like at the time he was trying to save someone who was covering for a young girl,” Dallas Police Detective Darryl Barclay said.
