An unlawful assembly order was issued in Minneapolis on Saturday after a 37-year-old local, believed to be an American citizen, was fatally shot by a Border Patrol agent. Mayor Jacob Frey said he saw a video of the shooting, urging President Donald Trump to withdraw federal officers from Minnesota.

“How many more residents, how many more Americans, need to die or get badly hurt for this operation to end?” Frey asked in a press conference. He added that “a great American city is being invaded by its own federal government.”
Meanwhile, the DHS issued a statement, saying that officers were conducting a targeted operation against an illegal alien wanted for violent assault. An individual, the suspect, approached US Border Patrol officers with a 9 mm semi-automatic handgun.
“The officers attempted to disarm the suspect but the armed suspect violently resisted. More details on the armed struggle are forthcoming. Fearing for his life and the lives and safety of fellow officers, an agent fired defensive shots. Medics on scene immediately delivered medical aid to the subject but was pronounced dead at the scene. The suspect also had 2 magazines and no ID—this looks like a situation where an individual wanted to do maximum damage and massacre law enforcement,” the DHS said on X, platform formerly known as Twitter.

Minneapolis police, meanwhile, stated that they believe the man was a lawful gun owner with a permit to carry a weapon.
