A U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer in Minnesota shot and killed an anti-ICE protester during an operation on Jan. 7, the Department of Homeland Security confirmed.

“Today, ICE officers in Minneapolis were conducting targeted operations when rioters began blocking ICE officers and one of these violent rioters weaponized her vehicle, attempting to run over our law enforcement officers in an attempt to kill them—an act of domestic terrorism,” Assistant Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security Tricia McLaughlin wrote in an X post on Jan. 7.
