The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is investigating a female U.S. citizen who allegedly tried to buy a gun and who said she wanted to “protect herself from ICE Agents, and also to kill ICE Agents,” the agency said in a Jan. 27 statement.
The woman allegedly made the purchase attempt on two separate occasions in Kenmore, New York. The issue is being investigated by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), the New York State Police, and Homeland Security Investigations. More information regarding the suspect, including whether she was in custody, was not provided by DHS.
