"The parents of Joshua Jahn, who died by suicide, told local police their 29-year-old son was a "loner," according to a Fairview police report recently obtained by NPR. Fairview is a suburb north of Dallas, where he was living with his parents. According to the incident report, Jahn was unemployed and didn't have friends or a romantic partner. The parents told the police Jahn "spent much of his time on his computer playing games and was 'obsessed' with AI technology.""
"Jahn left a note saying the attack was aimed at ICE agents, law enforcement said at a press conference the day after the shooting. Assigning Blame Acting U.S. Attorney Nancy Larson said at a press conference a day after the shooting that Jahn likely acted alone and wasn't affiliated with a particular group or entity. Public records from Oklahoma, where Jahn voted in the 2024 general election, indicate he was a registered independent."

Jahn left a note saying the attack targeted ICE agents. Federal officials said he likely acted alone and had no group affiliation. Public records show he was a registered independent; observers note perpetrators' political beliefs can be mixed.
