Then he proceeded to pump more than 163 rounds of .223 ammunition from his semi-automatic rifle into the headquarters.The gunman was killed but none of Kowalski's employees suffered an injury.In this episode of SWAT Brothers, Doug Kowalski talks about policing with Investigative Reporter Robert Riggs and Retired Dallas Police Lt.
