Overview

• One detainee was killed and two were critically wounded when a gunman fired from a nearby rooftop at an ICE field office in Dallas before killing himself; no ICE personnel were injured.
• Investigators say evidence shows extensive preparation, including downloads of DHS facility lists, searches of ICE-tracking apps, ballistics research, and viewing of the “Charlie Kirk Shot Video.”
• A handwritten note recovered by the FBI said, “Hopefully this will give ICE agents real terror,” and an unspent casing marked “ANTI-ICE” was found at the scene.
• Officials identified the shooter as 29-year-old Joshua Jahn and said he acted alone, used a legally purchased 8mm bolt-action rifle, and accessed the rooftop with a ladder attached to his vehicle.
• Homeland Security directed increased security at ICE sites nationwide and postponed Dallas check-ins, while political leaders clashed over rhetoric and responsibility as the probe continues.
