The incident was captured on video by a bystander, Caitlin Callenson, exhibiting occasions unfolding that contradicted a report by the Division of Homeland Safety Assistant Secretary Trisha McLaughlin.

“One in all these violent rioters weaponized her car, trying to run over our regulation enforcement officers in an try and kill them — an act of home terrorism,” McLaughlin wrote in a put up on X, previously Twitter. “An ICE officer, fearing for his life, the lives of his fellow regulation enforcement and the protection of the general public, fired defensive photographs.”  

Division of Homeland Safety Secretary Kristi Noem claimed that the ICE agent was responding to “an act of home terrorism” at a press convention in Texas, and went on to parrot a conspiracy concept alleging that there was a “coordinated” effort the place “individuals are being skilled” to make use of vehicles as weapons.

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey was blunt on the press convention. “Having seen the video myself, I wish to inform everyone immediately: that’s bulls**t,” he stated. “This was an agent recklessly utilizing energy that resulted in any person dying, getting killed.” He added, “I’ve a message for ICE: Get the f— out of Minneapolis.”

The state will guarantee there’s a full, truthful, and expeditious investigation to make sure accountability and justice.”
