Federal Border Patrol Shooting in Minneapolis

• Main Point:
  Federal Border Patrol agents fatally shot a Minneapolis man on Saturday morning.
• Details from Bill Melugin (00:09):
  • The shooting was by Border Patrol, not ICE.
  • The man was reportedly "armed with a gun," and agents recovered the firearm and two magazines.
  • "I'm told the person was shot multiple times and that medics were working on them and that CPR was being performed."
  • The specifics around the enforcement action—whether it was immigration-related or targeted—were not yet clear.
  • Melugin raises critical, unanswered questions:
    • Was it "a targeted immigration enforcement?"
    • "Did Border Patrol know who this person was? Was it somebody in the US Illegally that they were marking for arrest?"
  • Memorable Moment: The confusion and paucity of detail, highlighting tensions over federal enforcement actions.

"What we do not know right now is what led up to the shooting or what type of enforcement this was."

  • At the Federal Whipple Building, agitators allegedly attempted to block agents with a U-Haul loaded with shields and riot gear, refusing to move after police warnings, which led to the use of tear gas and pepper balls.

"A group of agitators showed up with a U Haul filled with shields and riot gear...eventually cleared out with tear gas and pepper balls."

Transcript

[A]

Another shooting in Minnesota. I'm Paul Stevens, Fox News. Fox's Bill Melusian now reports with the latest on that latest shooting.

[B]

This was a border patrol involved shooting. This was not ice. Border Patrol shot somebody who DHS tells Fox News was armed with a gun. They have recovered that gun as well as two magazines. Now I'm told the person was shot multiple times and that medics were working on them and that CPR was being performed. What we do not know right now is what led up to the shooting or what type of enforcement this was. Was this a targeted immigration enforcement? Did Border Patrol know who this person was? Was it somebody in the US Illegally that they were marking for arrest?

[A]

This comes as protesters have been protesting federal agents in Minneapolis for weeks after Renee Goode was shot by ICE and killed on the 7th of January. The highly anticipated winter storm is underway threatening to bring snow, sleet, ice, bone chilling temperatures and excessive power outages to of the U.S. population. Fox Weather's Mike Seidel in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

[C]

We're 40 degrees below average. We've had anywhere from 2 to 4 inches of snow from phase one. But phase two is still on the way. That's for tonight into tomorrow morning. We're still going to end up with about a foot of snow here. The all time record storm total is 14. A lot of people are just staying home, staying put because of the cold, because of the roads. With the temperatures this cold, even if we get a few peaks of sunshine, melting is going to be pretty much a no go today. And then after the snow ends tomorrow morning, the warning goes till 3pm it gets even colder. Monday morning we're going to be below zero. But this is going to stick around right on through the rest of the week. As far as melting goes, not a whole lot of melting highs. We'll struggle to get above freezing as we have reinforcing shots of arctic air coming in.

Arrests made in Minnesota during an anti ice protest protests all over the city yesterday.

[D]

And this was all part of what activists were calling a statewide shutdown to protest ice. And this march and rally they had downtown was just massive. Thousands of people that were out here marching and bundled up in sub zero temperatures. They were out here marching for a couple of hours demanding that ICE leave the city. Over at the airport, more than a hundred people were arrested at a demonstration organized by clergy blocking traffic and one of the entrances to the airport to protest deportation flights. And while those protests stayed peaceful, over at the Federal Whipple Building, officials say a group of agitators showed up with a U Haul filled with shields and riot gear to try and block agents from being able to head out on operations. They refused repeated warnings to get out of the road and were eventually cleared out with tear gas and pepper balls.

Fox's Garrett Henney in Minneapolis say Republican congressmen's attack Tanden's record is now being questioned.

House GOP leadership had to keep a vote open this week to wait for Congressman Wesley Hunt to cast the deciding vote, killing Democrats efforts to rein in President Trump's war powers. Hunt has missed numerous votes while campaigning for the Senate in Texas. Hunt did not take questions from reporters after votes this week, but a spokesman for his primary opponent, Senator John Cornyn, tells Fox News Hunt is refusing to fight for President Trump's agenda. Hunt has criticized Cornyn's time in office, saying his record on issues like amnesty don't match the president's agenda. In Washington, Ryan Schmell's Fox News More.

Tough tariff talk from the White House. President Trump threatening to impose a 100% tariff, he says, on goods imported from Canada if Canada goes ahead with a trade deal it made with China.
