A quiet Wednesday morning in Dallas turned deadly when a rooftop shooter opened fire on an ICE van. Authorities say 29-year-old Joshua Jahn fired “indiscriminately,” killing one detainee and injuring two others before taking his own life.
Investigators later found shell casings etched with chilling anti-ICE messages. FBI officials called the attack a direct strike on federal authority. “This is despicable,” said President Donald Trump, while Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem urged, “It must stop. Please pray for the victims.”

Friends remembered Joshua as a gamer, not political. His brother described him as “unique” but said he showed no signs of violence. Court records revealed a past drug charge, yet family members insist the shooting came as a complete shock. His grieving mother broke down: “I’m so sorry… I just can’t talk.”
Witnesses described panic as shots rang out. One woman recalled, “That’s very close, that’s very close,” while hiding in her car. The investigation continues, leaving a community shaken and families searching for answers.
