FBI Probes Dallas ICE Rooftop Attack as Ideologically Motivated After Detainee Killed

Casings marked 'ANTI‑ICE' recovered at the scene indicate a political motive.

Overview

  • Police say the shooter opened fire around 6:40 a.m. from an adjacent rooftop at ICE’s Dallas field office along I‑35E near Love Field.
  • Authorities confirm detainees were among the victims with at least one killed and others wounded, and no ICE personnel injured; Mexico says one seriously hurt victim is a Mexican national.
  • The suspect died of a self‑inflicted gunshot at the scene and was identified as 29‑year‑old Joshua Jahn, according to a police official.
  • FBI, DHS, ATF and Dallas police are leading a joint investigation and are treating the incident as an ideologically driven attack after evidence marked “ANTI‑ICE” was found.
  • The shooting follows weeks of heightened immigration enforcement and street confrontations, including ongoing protests at ICE’s Broadview, Illinois site where agents used pepper‑ball rounds and made arrests.
