Dallas shooting: FBI reveals suspect tracked ICE buildings before attack
The FBI confirmed that the suspect behind Wednesday’s deadly shooting at a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in Dallas had carried out extensive research on the agency prior to the attack. According to FBI Director Kash Patel, the gunman, identified as 29-year-old Joshua Jahn, downloaded lists of local Department of Homeland Security sites and searched for applications capable of tracking ICE agents in the weeks leading up to the incident.
Authorities reported that Jahn opened fire with a sniper rifle from a rooftop near the ICE office in northwest Dallas, killing one detainee and critically wounding two others. No law enforcement personnel were injured. The suspect later took his own life, and investigators found an unused bullet near his body marked “ANTI-ICE.”
Evidence collected so far suggests a high level of premeditation. A handwritten note found at Jahn’s residence reportedly stated his intent to terrify ICE agents. Investigators also discovered that Jahn had searched online for a video of the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, who was killed by a sniper in Utah earlier this month.
The Dallas shooting has reignited political tensions in the United States. Former president Donald Trump and his administration allies quickly blamed “radical left Democrats” for inciting anti-ICE violence, though no evidence has linked the suspect to any external groups. Democratic leaders in Congress condemned the attack and urged unity, warning that political and ideological violence in the U.S. has reached a breaking point.
The incident adds to a series of high-profile attacks in recent years targeting both right- and left-wing figures, reflecting the growing polarization and instability in the country.
