Before Dally was shot, he was in a state of desperation and despair following the death of his friend Johnny. He had just come from the hospital where Johnny died and was feeling overwhelmed with grief. In a moment of emotional turmoil, he pulled out a gun and confronted the police, leading to the fatal confrontation. Dally's actions were driven by his inability to cope with the loss and his feelings of hopelessness.
When they come back from lunch, they find out that the church is on fire also that there are children in it.
When Johnny passed away from his serious injuries, Dally lost control and robbed a store. He really wasn't sure if he wanted to take it that far, but he realized that he had lost the only person he loved. After he robbed the store, the police were immediately after him. He called up the gang to come witness his death. Once the police caught up to him in the park, he pulled out his unloaded gun and pretended to shoot at the police, as a reaction the police immediately fired at Dallas Winston, shooting him dead to the ground, with his gang by his side.
Johnny's parents are very upset, and scared. :/
