"Federal law enforcement officers were "conducting a targeted traffic stop" at about 6:50 p.m. local time involving a man from Venezuela who DHS said entered the country illegally in 2022. The person drove away and crashed into a parked car before taking off on foot, DHS said. After officers reached the person, two other people arrived from a nearby apartment and all three started attacking the officer, according to DHS."
""Fearing for his life and safety as he was being ambushed by three individuals, the officer fired a defensive shot to defend his life," DHS said. The two people who came out of the apartment are in custody, it said. A large group of officers wearing gas masks fired tear gas into a crowd gathered at a north Minneapolis intersection near where Wednesday's shooting took place."
