Dallas Police Chief David Brown and Deputy Chief Scott Walton will unleash their inner superhero by going Over the Edge of the Bank of America Building, 400 S. Zang Boulevard, on Saturday, November 8th beginning at 10:00am. Chief Brown is the Over the Edge Honorary Chairman, and along with local law enforcement officers, celebrities and citizens, will rappel down the 15-story bank building at the fifth annual event in support of 6,300 Special Olympics Texas athletes in the Dallas area.
