Federal authorities executed a search warrant at Thomas' home in Dallas four days after the ambush. Court documents state that Thomas initially denied knowing Song, but then admitted that the pair had been friends since 2022 and previously lived together from September 2024 to June 2025.

During an interview, Thomas allegedly admitted to investigators that he transported Song to a separate home in the area after the shooting. Thomas, who claimed he was not present during the ambush shooting, allegedly told officials that he had met with three individuals on the day after the attack, which involved discussions on how to help Song flee the area, according to court documents.

Federal prosecutors said that officers recovered a loaded 30-round AR-15 magazine and a July 6 Walmart receipt for clothing from Thomas's vehicle following a search. Thomas allegedly told authorities that he had purchased the clothing for Song.

Additionally, Thomas was a member of two separate Signal Chat groups that included Song. Thomas reportedly removed Song from one of the chats the day after the shooting, according to court documents.

Sharp, who was also a member of the Signal Chats, has been accused of offering to monitor the chat for the group while they carried out the attack on police officers at the Prairieland Detention Center. Court documents allege that Sharp also used the online chat to help arrange transport for Song.

The FBI is offering a $25,000 reward for the whereabouts of Song and/or any information that may lead to his arrest.

Song is wanted on attempted murder charges. Authorities consider him to be armed and dangerous and believe Song purchased four of the firearms connected to the attack.
