‘Why So Deadly?’: Kristi Noem faces tough question on rising deaths in immigration enforcement – The Economic Times Video

U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem said on Saturday (January 24) that the man shot dead in Minneapolis by a federal immigration agent “attacked officers,” though she did not say whether he pulled out his weapon. Noem was speaking from FEMA headquarters in Washington, D.C. She also said the U.S. citizen killed committed an act “domestic terrorism” and attempted “to stop a law enforcement operation of federal law enforcement officers.” U.S. immigration agents shot and killed a U.S. citizen in Minneapolis on Saturday, officials said, sparking fierce protests and condemnations from local leaders in the second such incident this month.
