Man Dies After ICE Shooting in Minneapolis Amid Immigration Crackdown
A 51-year-old man shot by federal immigration officers in Minneapolis has died, as authorities face protests amid the crackdown.
A 51-year-old man shot Saturday by federal immigration officers in Minneapolis has died, hospital records show.
The Department of Homeland Security said the person had a firearm with two magazines and described the situation as evolving.
The shooting comes amid the Trump administration's immigration crackdown, fueling protests in the Twin Cities following a prior fatal shooting by immigration agents earlier this month.
Governor Tim Walz urged the White House to end what DHS calls its largest-ever immigration enforcement operation, asking President Trump to pull thousands of officers out of Minnesota.
Locals gathered outside in frigid weather, voicing anger and concern as authorities investigated the episode, which unfolded at East 26th Street and Nicollet Avenue.
