President Barack Obama on Saturday cautioned that "America is not as divided as some have suggested," while acknowledging a week plagued by deadly violence involving law enforcement in the U.S.

"Americans of all races and all backgrounds are rightly outraged by the inexcusable attacks on police, whether it's in Dallas or anyplace else," Obama said, referring to an attack by a lone gunman Thursday that left five police officers dead and seven wounded, the Associated Press reported.
