"Federal immigration officers shot a third person in Minneapolis in as many weeks, according to video posted to social media and confirmed by Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara. O'Hara said federal agents killed a 37-year-old man whom officials believe is a U.S. citizen who lives in Minneapolis. He said he had no information about what led up to the shooting but said the man, who officials have not identified yet, was a lawful gun owner with a permit to carry. O'Hara says police have not interacted with the deceased other than a few traffic tickets."
"Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey again urged the federal government to end its two-month old immigration siege, which has brought 3,000 federal officers to Minnesota, or nearly five times the number of sworn Minneapolis police officers. "How many times must local and national leaders must plead with you, Donald Trump, to end this operation and recognize that this is not creating safety in our city?" Mayor Jacob Frey said. Gov. Tim Walz said he'd spoken to the White House after the shooting. "Minnesota has had it. This is sickening.""
