The FBI Director said the initial evidence shows there was an ideological motive behind the attack.

A shooter who wrote “ANTI-ICE” on a bullet casing killed one detainee and wounded two others on Wednesday, when he opened fire on an Immigration and Customs Enforcement field office in Dallas from a close-by rooftop before killing himself, officials said.
Kash Patel, the FBI’s Director, posted a photo on X of the alleged shooter’s unused ammunition, showing the shell casing of one round inscribed with the phrase “ANTI-ICE” along the side.
“While the investigation is ongoing, an initial review of the evidence shows an ideological motive behind this attack,” Patel wrote.
According to FOX News and FOX 4, the sniper who killed at least one person at the Dallas ICE facility was 29-year-old Joshua Jahn. He has relatives and family in Collin County, in the city of Fairview.
Fox reported that SKY 4 captured images of FBI agents outside the Fairview home on Wednesday afternoon and FOX 4 reporters saw what appeared to be frenzied family members.
A neighbor who’s lived there for 30 years said she knows everyone on the street except for this family because they kept to themselves.
President Donald Trump said on Truth Social that “Radical Left Democrats” had managed to stoke anti-ICE violence by “constantly demonizing Law Enforcement, calling for ICE to be demolished, and comparing ICE Officers to Nazis.”

According to @Sec_Noem, he died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. We don't know much yet, but it's a reminder that there are people out there choosing violence to settle their scores.@JSolomonReports @RealDrGina @DBrodyReports @TBatesNews pic.twitter.com/W72NJQBddJ
Trump said two weeks ago, after conservative commentator Charlie Kirk’s murder, that “Radical Left Terrorists” pose a “grave threat” to law enforcement and “must be stopped.”
The Department of Homeland Security said the suspect fired “indiscriminately” at the ICE facility, including at a van in the building’s secured entryway where the victims were shot.
Noah Jahn, 30, said he did not know that his brother embraced any malicious feelings about ICE.
“I didn’t know he had any political intent at all,” said the older brother, who lives in McKinney, Texas, around 30 miles north of Dallas, as did his sibling.
Law enforcement officers were not wounded in the attack, officials said. The gunfire attack took place at an ICE field office, not a detention facility, where ICE officers conduct short-term processing of recently arrested detainees.
