Shots rang out in Minneapolis early Saturday after federal police tried to subdue a man who was waving around a gun, according to law enforcement sources and video posted to social media.

A 39-second clip showed about half a dozen cops struggling with someone on the sidewalk in front of a donut shop at 26th Street and Nicollet Avenue, when the gunfire erupted.

The officers appeared to scatter after the barrage of shots went off, according to the footage.



The shooting happened after the man brandished a firearm with two magazines, a law enforcement source told The Post, sharing a photo of the firearm.

In a statement, city officials urged residents to stay calm and avoid the area.


“We are aware of reports of another shooting involving federal law enforcement in the area of 26th Street W and Nicollet Ave. We are working to confirm additional details,” the statement said.

More than 100 protesters had been at the scene when the encounter occurred. The man’s condition was not immediately known.





On Friday, protesters yelled obscenities at two people wearing plain clothes who they believed to be agents after protesters claimed their rental car was linked to the incident, according to video reviewed by The Post.

Neither person was an officer.



Gov. Tim Walz (D-Minn.) posted about the incident on X late morning Saturday as the details of the shooting were still unfolding.

“I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening,” he wrote.

“The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.”


Neither the White House or the Department of Homeland Security have said what precipitated the shooting, and did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Despite what the Post says about the protestor's condition, Fox News is reporting he died. Spiciness inbound.
 
I find it pretty telling that only one white women in my social media orbit seems to care about this killing when all of them wouldn't stop screaming about George Floyd and Kyle Rittenhouse.
 
we don't need these rageslop platitudes being regurgitated verbatim, go quote engagement jeets elsewhere.
I saw that tweet, I just want to know if I saw things right since it took me watching the OG a couple times to see what's actually going on.
 
I think this nurse intentionally started shit with ICE
Started shit how though? He seems to just stand around filming then ICE walks up to him and start shoving him around. It doesn't look to me like he's impeding their operations in any way, unlike Renee Good, so I question why they were even interacting with him to begin with.
This whole thing stinks.
 
This thread has by far come the closest to provoking a serious, genuinely angry rant from me during my time on this website.

But I have work in the morning, so I'll just say this:

Nuremberg 2.0 is going to be lit af
"How dare you deport people?!?! That's just like da freaking nazis chuuuud"
This guy is going to get death threats for sure jeez
It appears this guy was also a member of the Signal group that targeted ICE, again nothing is ever organic with these people.
Of course
Stop trying to reason with these retards.
Onomatopoeia
She was breaking into a federal building and told to stand down, little guy. Besides, you were against that but you are all for this. Is it because she was a woman and this was a man? Dude, stop simping for a fat redneck.
So we should simp for the gay dude instead pops?
Seems like both situations will get you shot. Don't storm federal buildings and don't interfere with federal law enforcement.
Trueeeee
 
whether it's Ashli Babbitt or George Floyd or whatever there are always so many retards that come out ASAP to grave dance I hate to go "both sides are bad!" but really how blind to your own autism do you have to be.
 
Did the guy who got shot actually have a criminal record?
Only traffic tickets.

I am annoyed at the admin for not arresting Waltz and his political organizers for treason. Send in delta force or the seals and arrest him already before it escalates further. They will drag this country down before having to face the music on their blatant fraud.
 
Just found out about this, and it was definitely suicide by cop. We need to get rid of the 2nd Amendment so this shit stops happening, guns have no place in public gatherings.
 
Redditors inexplicably being right about something.
First off, this is the worst thing I have ever seen posted on this forum and demand you retract this horrible statement.

Second, how offensive. Right now my fantasy utopia is me riding a gigantic levitating gold platform over Indian cities while shooting rocket launchers at them from above.

Also niggers. And fat people.

I refuse to take your terrible stereotype and flawed observation with pass. You should apologize to the forum community from this gross insult to its character.

Kekw not even 24 hours since claiming his died-for-niggers award and this retard isn't even a trending search. Sad!

g-guys, it's a good thing all the faggy roman armor profile pics are in here defending fat chud ice agents and demanding we arrest tim walz, right? we're not all posting in favor of things that will ultimately only enrich the CEO from Tamil Nadu, India with a net worth of 1.1 billion dollars, right??

Imagine caring about some tech jeets selling clerical and data mining tools over the state embezzlement of millions upon millions of dollars which a portion is being used by bulb head nigger Islamic rape terrorists.

Couldn’t be me, lmao.s
 
This is messy.

I’m a republican and fully support ICE, in fact I dearly hope they don’t fall back on enforcement of our citizenship and who is legally allowed to be here because of this.
We’ve made great progress on letting illegal immigrants and those who have stayed past their temporary visas etc know that it won’t be tolerated, and they either need to self deport or we’ll do it for them.

With that being said: this was a bad situation, and a bad shoot.
Everything I’ve seen leads me to believe that he was disarmed before he was shot.
In this specific situation, officers made wrong calls and a man lost his life for it.
Cannot justify that.

the point being made is there is a financial incentive to not promote certain topics, but if you want to convince yourself feds killing people who are disarmed doesn't ultimately hurt your long term goals of impacting how money is spent, then you can keep convincing yourself that with RomanSoldierDeusVult9001 users in this thread! :drink:
