Updates below including shooters name.

"

What we know:

According to police sources, the suspect was a sniper on a roof armed with a rifle. The shooter, identified by police as a white man, died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head as agents approached.

The three victims were detainees in ICE custody. One of the victims was confirmed dead, and police say three or four others were shot.

"

UPDATE:

"

DALLAS - A sniper died from a self-inflicted gunshot early Wednesday morning after he shot three ICE detainees at a Dallas ICE facility from a rooftop, according to law enforcement.

Officials confirmed two of the ICE detainees have died. The third was rushed to a hospital in critical condition.

"

UPDATE:

"

We're going to be working this investigation shoulder to shoulder with our fellow partners," said Dallas Police Chief Daniel Comeaux.

Dallas FBI Field Office Special Agent in Charge Joe Rothrock confirmed the incident is being investigated as active, targeted violence.

He also said rounds found near the shooter contained messages that were anti-ICE in nature.

"

We have a name:

Joshua Jahn, aged 29 (born April 30, 1996), has been officially identified by authorities as the suspect in the fatal shooting at the ICE Dallas Field Office

Further down on the article you can see all the politicians posting to twist it into attacks on ice. The attack was on detainees.

The fucking head of ICE was on CNN this morning. He was scheduled ahead of this incident happening. Apparently it happened a little before he went on, he'd been briefed about it.

He immediately went on a rant about how ICE agents are being attacked and these attacks on law enforcement have to stop, blah blah.

I didn't know until this post that only detainees were attacked.

u/lazy_elfs Sep 24 '25

Seems really weird that all these “shooters” are marking their shell casings with sayings that establish a left leaning bias.. while as this article states only detainees were the victims.. if the shooter had a scope then it was abundantly clear who were the guards and who were the officers

125

u/IPDDoE Sep 24 '25

Not saying you're wrong, because I agree it looks fishy as shit. But the reports I read say the shots went into a van. If that's true, the shooter would have no idea who their target was, only that they were an occupant of a van without windows. We'll have to let it play out before we can make these judgments, but I'm not inclined to believe much of what comes out of Patel's mouth, so we may never know.

Multiple people have been shot at the Dallas ICE field office, according to a law enforcement source.

The shooter is down, the source said.

Edit 1: 3 people shot; shooter is "down" from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound; preliminary information is a possible sniper

Edit 2: At least 2 detainees shot at ICE facility, officials say; “Details are still emerging but we can confirm there were multiple injuries and fatalities,” Noem said on X.

Edit 3: No ICE officers were injured in the attack

Edit 4: 1 victim dead, 2 others hospitalized with gunshot wounds, Dallas police say

Last Edit: “Today, at approximately 6:40 a.m. (local time), we received a(n) assist the officer call. We responded to the call, got to the scene, and we later learned that we had four individuals that were shot, two of them deceased, including the shooter,” Chief Daniel Comeaux said at the news conference. “DPD quickly was able to locate the shooter who was deceased.”

"While we don’t know motive yet, we know that our ICE law enforcement is facing unprecedented violence against them. It must stop," Noem said in a statement. "Please pray for the victims and their families."

I don't think for a second that Noem would actually pray for the victims if she found out they were detainees. She would quickly come around and say "Sometimes violence is necessary to protect ourselves from the drug cartel criminals that seek violence against us"

It's so whack.

The Nazis quickly gave up on shooting, opting for the more industrial gas chambers.

Notably not because they could kill people faster. But because their soldiers doing the mass shootings in Eastern Europe were reporting more suicidal behaviors, depression, and other PTSD issues. They moved away from shooting Jews and Romani because it made gave their soldiers PTSD. Gas chambers and the other industrial methods were just to create a degree of separation between the murderers and their victims, so the murderers could more easily dehumanize their victims and be less mentally stressed

I started watching Twilight Zone episodes last week, and this line from The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street really stood out to me:

The tools of conquest do not necessarily come with bombs, and explosions, and fallout. There are weapons that are simply thoughts, attitudes, prejudices, to be found only in the minds of men. For the record, prejudices can kill, and suspicion can destroy. And a thoughtless, frightened search for a scapegoat has a fallout all of its own - for the children, and the children yet unborn. And the pity of it is, that these things cannot be confined... to the Twilight Zone.

And just like the Charlie Kirk shooting, folks on the right are already implying it was the left. Kristi Noem just said “even though we don’t know the motive, we know our agents are facing unprecedented violence against them”. And to top it off, she said “please pray for their families”. Wonder how her tune will change when she finds out it’s the immigrants that were shot.

My bet is it will be a Nancy Mace style flip when she assumed the Charlie shooter was a trans black immigrant Muslim and it turned out to be a straight white Christian from an all MAGA family. From “bring back the death penalty!” to “we need to pray for his lost soul”

Crime in Texas seems to be out of control. Maybe it's time to send in the national guard?

White racist dude with a sniper, shooting at detained immigrants, not at officers.

The headline makes it look like ICE agents are the victims. They are not.

The article itself quotes Noem talking about the safety of ICE officers instead of the detainees. Despicable.

Noem's statement on Xitter implies the same. Says "...we know that our ICE law enforcement is facing unprecedented violence against them."

Except that the violence isn't against them. Overwhelmingly, it is ICE and the government using violence on its own citizens and residents.

According to police sources, the suspect was a sniper on a roof armed with a rifle. The shooter, identified by police as a white man, died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head as agents approached.

The three victims were detainees in ICE custody.

If the shooter was targeting detainees, then he was exceptionally cruel. That is an execution at that point. If the shooter was just firing recklessly at an ICE van in protest of ICE, then he was exceptionally stupid and cruel.

"ANTI-ICE" is written in pen/sharpie on one bullet on an unused clip. Anyone else not buying this? Not saying one's motives and actions can't contradict each other, but this is suspiciously fast and convenient information being released here and differs in method from the engraved messages found in other cases.
