After Another ICE Shooting, Minneapolis Mayor Tells Trump: 'Act Like A Leader'
HuffPost
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey urged Trump to "take action now" to remove thousands of federal agents from his city following another fatal ICE shooting.
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey called on President Donald Trump to withdraw the massive ICE presence in his city following the latest fatal shooting of a man by federal agents on Saturday.
“This is a moment to act like a leader,” Frey said during a press conference following the shooting. “Put Minneapolis, put America first. Let’s achieve peace. Let’s end this operation, and I’m telling you our city will come back, safety will be restored. Take action now to remove these federal agents.”
Video posted online shows at least six masked federal agents wrestling an unidentified man to the ground before shooting him multiple times. It’s unclear what started the confrontation.
The Department of Homeland Security claimed the man was armed with a 9 mm gun and that a federal agent “fired defensive shots” at him out of fear for his life and the safety of his fellow officers.
Brian O’Hara, the Minneapolis police chief, told reporters he believed the man was “a lawful gun owner with a permit to carry.”
