Straight Arrow News confirmed a man was shot by Border Patrol agents Saturday morning in South Minneapolis. The Associated Press reported the 51-year-old man has died.
The incident was caught on video at 26th and Nicollet in the Whittier neighborhood.
The City of Minneapolis said it is aware of the incident and asking the public to remain calm and avoid that area.
Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz posted on X, “I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening. The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.”
This is the third shooting by a federal agent in Minneapolis this year. Around 3,000 federal agents were sent to Minnesota in an immigration crackdown by the Trump administration.
The state, as well as the cities of Minneapolis and Saint Paul, filed a federal lawsuit earlier this month against the Department of Homeland Security to end what they called this “unprecedented surge.”
This story is developing and will be updated momentarily.
