DHS Secretary Kristi Noem addressed the shooting during remarks she made in a border security event in Texas, calling it an "act of domestic terrorism."

We now have video of what led up to the ICE-involved shooting.

(Warning: some viewers may find this video disturbing, and it contains adult language)

Here's our earlier reporting:

Assistant Deputy Secretary for the Department of Homeland Security Tricia McLaughlin issued a statement on X just minutes ago, and confirmed the alleged perpetrator was killed:

The post reads:

Today, ICE officers in Minneapolis were conducting targeted operations when rioters began blocking  ICE officers and one of these violent rioters weaponized her vehicle, attempting to run over our law enforcement officers in an attempt to kill them—an act of domestic terrorism. 

An ICE officer, fearing for his life, the lives of his fellow law enforcement and the safety of the public, fired defensive shots. 

He used his training and saved his own life and that of his fellow officers. 

The alleged perpetrator was hit and is deceased. The ICE officers who were hurt are expected to make full recoveries. 

This is the direct consequence of constant attacks and demonization of our officers by sanctuary politicians who fuel and encourage rampant assaults on our law enforcement. These men and women who are simply enforcing the law on the books are facing 1,300% increase in assaults against them and an 8,000% increase in death threats.

This is an evolving situation, and we will give the public more information as soon as it becomes available.

Here's our earlier reporting:

Video from the scene shows several law enforcement agencies clashing with protesters.

Fox News is reporting that the tear gas was used on the crowd and that DHS is reportedly calling the shooting an alleged "vehicle ramming incident."

Reporter Mike Tobin said the victim is reportedly a woman, but that no other details were available about her or her condition at this time.

No law enforcement officers were injured. We will continue to update.

Here's our earlier reporting.

It appears ICE was involved in a shooting in Minneapolis this morning.

At the moment, details are sparse, but according to Liz Collins at Alpha News, a woman was attempting to flee ICE was shot near the intersection of 33rd and Portland.

Crime Watch Minneapolis is reporting two EMS rigs were requested to the area and that CPR was in progress.

Fox9 is reporting "multiple agencies" are on scene.

Here's more:

In a tweet, the City of Minneapolis says they are aware of a shooting involving federal law enforcement near East 34th Street and Portland Avenue. They are asking members of the public to avoid the area.

The Hennepin County Sheriff's Office also says they are aware of the incident and responding to the scene but say the sheriff's office wasn't involved in the shooting.

In a post on Bluesky, Council Member Jason Chavez said Border Patrol Chief Gregory Bovino had responded to the scene of the shooting.

Fox9 is also reporting that Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey is demanding ICE leave the city.

"The presence of federal immigration enforcement agents is causing chaos in our city," Frey wrote in a post. "We're demanding ICE to leave the city immediately. We stand rock solid with our immigrant and refugee communities."

Governor Walz says his team is "gathering information."

We will make more details available as they become known.

Editor’s Note: Democrats are fanning the flames and raising the rhetoric by comparing ICE to the Gestapo, fascists, and secret police.
