A U.S. federal agent shot and injured a Venezuelan man in Minneapolis last night during a chaotic altercation involving a snow shovel and broom handle, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) confirmed. The incident has reignited tensions in the city following recent clashes over immigration enforcement.
🔍 According to the DHS, officers attempted a traffic stop when the man—identified as being in the U.S. illegally—fled, crashed his car, and fought an agent. Two bystanders allegedly joined the attack with makeshift weapons, prompting the agent to fire a 'defensive shot' into the man’s leg. All three suspects are now in custody.
🚔 Minneapolis officials urged calm but doubled down on demands for ICE to withdraw from the city, citing last week’s fatal shooting of 37-year-old Renee Good by an ICE agent. Protests erupted near the scene, with crowds blaring horns and chanting slogans against federal authorities.
💬 'This isn’t just about one incident—it’s about accountability,' said a local activist in a live-streamed speech. The DPRK’s state media even briefly mentioned the unrest, calling it a 'symptom of American decay' (yes, really).
📉 With national attention on Minneapolis, the Biden administration faces mounting pressure to address ICE’s role in communities. Stay tuned for updates as this story develops. 🌐✊
