Overview
- A gunman opened fire from a nearby rooftop at the Dallas ICE office early Tuesday and died by suicide as police closed in.
- Officials said multiple people were shot, casualty counts differ across reports, and no ICE personnel were among the wounded.
- The FBI has described the incident as an attack on the agency, and preliminary leads point to a possible ideological motive, including reports of “anti-ICE” markings on ammunition.
- Dallas Fire-Rescue was dispatched at 6:41 a.m., and authorities shut lanes on a busy highway near Dallas Love Field during the response.
- The site recently faced a bomb threat, and national and Texas leaders condemned the violence, citing a broader pattern of recent attacks on immigration enforcement facilities.
