Overview
- Minnesota’s Bureau of Criminal Apprehension says federal prosecutors revoked its access to evidence and interviews, leaving the FBI solely in charge of the case.
- DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, President Donald Trump, and Vice President J. D. Vance defend the ICE officer and describe the shooting as defensive.
- Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and Governor Tim Walz reject the federal account after reviewing video and urge ICE to leave the city.
- Video analyses by the Washington Post and New York Times indicate the officer had moved out of immediate danger and fired from the side, undercutting a self-defense rationale.
- Large demonstrations continue in Minneapolis and other cities, schools close as a precaution, the National Guard is on alert, and the FBI opened an inquiry into a separate Portland shooting involving federal agents.
