A sniper who was shooting at ICE agents in Dallas is dead after a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
This morning just before 7am local time, an individual fired multiple rounds at a Dallas, Texas ICE facility, killing one, wounding several others, before taking his own life. FBI, DHS, ATF are on the ground with Dallas PD and state authorities.
Likely the result of an unfathomably stupid attack that missed everyone they claim to hate, killing two of the detainees with the agents instead.
Two detainees are dead and another is in serious condition following a shooting at a US Immigration and Customs Enforcement field office in Dallas, according to a Department of Homeland Security spokesperson.
The FBI is investigating it “as an act of targeted violence,” according to Special Agent in Charge Joe Rothrock. None of the people shot were members of law enforcement, he added.
I’m no expert, but when was the last time a sniper was not involved in a targeted attack? I mean, I suppose it’s possible, but if you are concealing yourself to ensure the persons you plan to shoot don’t see you before you fire…
Shell casings near where the alleged sniper fired are reported to have had anti-ICE messages on them.
The story is developing, obviously, but the FBI needs time to scrub the shooter’s social media before they tell us who it is.
