Fort Worth

An all-black car with a camera adorned to its roof drove parallel with a black SUV on Fort Worth’s West Lancaster Avenue bridge on Monday, March 23.

The pair of vehicles drove west on the roadway, made a U-turn and went back east to the other side of the bridge. An assortment of vehicles, including a yellow taxi and a box truck bearing a logo for “Capitol Cleaners,” drove both ways ahead of and behind the two black cars.

This sequence will eventually be seen on the small screen in the forthcoming third season of Taylor Sheridan’s “Lioness.”
