A shooting at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in Dallas has left one detainee dead and two others wounded. The alleged gunman, Joshua Jahn, 29, was found dead at the scene from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot.
The attack unfolded Wednesday morning when Jahn fired upon an ICE transport van from a nearby rooftop. Law enforcement sources indicate the shell casings recovered were marked with anti-government messages, suggesting a political motive. No officers were injured in the incident.
The event prompted strong responses from federal officials, with the Department of Homeland Security labeling it an attack on its personnel. An investigation is underway to determine the shooter’s motivations, focusing on his online activities and personal history.
The shooting has intensified the ongoing national debate over immigration enforcement and the safety of federal employees, leaving a community to reckon with a sudden act of violence.
