This undated photo posted on Facebook on April 30, 2016, shows Micah Johnson, who was a suspect in the sniper slayings of five law enforcement officers in Dallas Thursday night, July 7, 2016, during a protest over two recent fatal police shootings of black men. Authorities have described the Dallas sniper Micah Johnson as a loner. President Barack Obama called him “demented.” But in multiple interviews with The Associated Press, the Mississippi-born, Texas-bred 25-year-old was remembered by friends, comrades and acquaintances as a gregarious, even “goofy” extrovert. But after his Army career ended in disgrace, they say, the easygoing young black man was suddenly deeply shamed and ostracized. (Facebook via AP)
