Dallas Gunman Joshua Jahn Targets ICE in Terror Shooting

Joshua Jahn, a 29-year-old Texas native with a criminal record, carried out a deadly shooting at a Dallas ICE facility, killing two people and injuring others before shooting himself. The FBI discovered a handwritten manifesto and other writings indicating Jahn planned the attack meticulously with the intent to inflict "real terror" on ICE agents, targeting them specifically while aiming to minimize harm to detainees. Jahn legally obtained the rifle used in the assault and left anti-ICE messages on bullet casings, reflecting a strong ideological motive linked to his opposition to immigration enforcement. Investigations revealed Jahn’s online activity included searches for videos related to political violence and documents on Homeland Security locations, underscoring a high degree of premeditation. Authorities continue to probe his radicalization and movements leading up to the attack, with the FBI and U.S. Attorney describing the shooting as an act of targeted violence, though not officially labeled terrorism. The case highlights the dangers of online rhetoric translating into real-world violence against government personnel.
