Two detainees were killed and another was critically wounded after a roof sniper opened fire at the ICE Center for Immigration and Customs Execution (ICE) in Dallas, Texas, employees say.
The shooter shoots indiscriminately at the ice facility and in the nearby unmarked van, according to law enforcement officers before they die from a self -inflicted firearn wound.
No law enforcement authorities were injured. FBI Director Kash Patel posted a photo of X from unused ammunition restored from the stage. One body has the phrase “anti-sha” on it.
This is the most in a series of attacks on ice facilities in recent months, as the agency has been intensifying its efforts to fulfill the promise of US President Donald Trump for mass deportations.
Kash Patel/FBI“While the investigation continues, the initial review of the evidence shows an ideological motive behind this attack,” writes Patel at X.
“These contemptuous, politically motivated attacks against law enforcement are not one -off.”
FBI Special Agent Joe Rotrock told a press conference that circles found near the arms contain “messages that are anti-shaped in nature.”
“This is just the most new example of this type of attack,” he said. He said the FBI was investigating him as “an act of purposeful violence.”
Dallas police said a preliminary investigation found that the suspect had opened fire from a neighboring building.
“The Sagittarius shoots indiscriminately into the ice building, including a van in Saliport, where the victims are shot dead,” a statement from the Ministry of Homeland Security (DHS) said.
Reuters news agency has announced that the target building is an ice office used for short -term processing of recently arrested detainees and is not used as detention.
The position of the post of ice office in Dallas Joshua Johnson told a press conference that he was the second time he had to stand in front of the media and talk about Sagittarius in one of his facilities.
“The extraction from all this is that rhetoric should stop,” he said.
Texas Senator Ted Cruz also spoke at a press conference, condemning “politically motivated violence”.
“Your political opponents are not Nazis,” he said, calling for people not to demonstrate each other for guerrilla reasons. “Divisional rhetoric, tragically, has real consequences.”
Interior Security Secretary Christie Nov said in a statement: “This shooting must serve as awakening to the ultimate left that their ice rhetoric has consequences.
“Comparing an icy day and day-edition with the Nazi Gestapo, the secret police and the slave patrols have consequences.”
US Vice President JD Vance has published on X: “The obsessive attack on law enforcement agencies, especially ice, should stop. I pray for everyone who is injured in this attack and for their families.”
The Republican Governor of Texas Greg Abat said that the X shooting “would not delay the arrest, detention and deportation of illegal immigrants”.
Ice Field’s office in Dallas was directed by a series of protests this summer.
A man was arrested in August after entering the facility, claiming he had a bomb in his backpack, according to DHS.
The 36-year-old US citizen, Braton Dean Wilkinson, had shown the security staff of his wrist building, which he described as a “bomb detonator,” DHS said.
Last month, the shots were fired at ice offices in San Antonio, Texas. The incident did not report injury that ice accused of “political rhetoric”.
Another shooting took place on July 4 an official holiday in an ice facility in Alvarado, Texas after protesting the police. An officer was shot in the neck and survived. Eleven people have been charged with this attack.
