After ICE Shooting, Protests Sweep U.S. as Minneapolis Mayor Urges State Role in FBI Probe

An inconclusive pre‑shooting video circulates online alongside public defenses of the agents by senior officials.

Overview

  • Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey asked the FBI to include state authorities in the investigation, criticizing the current approach as lacking fairness and transparency.
  • Tens of thousands marched in Minneapolis and in cities such as New York and Philadelphia, chanting against ICE and denouncing the administration’s enforcement tactics.
  • A 47‑second clip published by Alpha News shows interactions immediately before the gunfire but does not establish whether the vehicle struck officers.
  • Vice President Vance reposted the video and said the agents faced danger, characterizing the shooting as self‑defense.
  • The case remains under federal inquiry as local prosecutors request any additional footage, with the debate intensified by a separate CBP shooting reported in Portland the previous day.
