Hazmat and Bomb Squad Probe Suspicious Substance at Dallas ICE Facility

The site was the scene of a fatal sniper attack in September.

Overview

  • Emergency crews responded shortly before 7 a.m. after a report of an unknown substance outside the ICE enforcement operations building on Stemmons Freeway.
  • Law enforcement evacuated the area before 8 a.m., and people with appointments were turned away and told to reschedule using incident number 25-2067465.
  • Dallas Fire-Rescue has a Hazmat team on scene, and the bomb squad prepared to examine a package found outside the facility.
  • Officials have not disclosed what the substance is, and no injuries or threats to the public have been reported.
  • The facility is the same location where a Sept. 24 rooftop sniper attack killed two detainees, a case the FBI is investigating as targeted violence attributed to Joshua Jahn.
