Rooftop Attack on Dallas ICE Office Kills One Detainee and Wounds Two

Investigators cite rooftop gunfire with an 'ANTI ICE' casing as early evidence of an ideologically driven attack.

Overview

  • Authorities say the gunman fired around 6:40 a.m. from an adjacent roof at the ICE field office near I‑35E, striking detainees as a vehicle entered a secured bay.
  • DHS later corrected initial tallies, confirming one detainee dead and two in critical condition, with no ICE personnel injured.
  • The shooter died of a self-inflicted gunshot, and a law enforcement official identified him as 29-year-old Joshua Jahn, a name not yet released publicly by investigators.
  • The FBI, DHS, ATF and Dallas Police are leading the investigation, calling it a targeted act based on preliminary findings.
  • Evidence cited by the FBI includes a recovered casing marked 'ANTI ICE,' and officials note recent threats and prior Texas incidents involving immigration facilities.
