Jan. 24 (UPI) -- Minnesota officials confirmed on Saturday that another Immigration and Customs Enforcement-involved shooting death happened in Minneapolis.
Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara said during a news conference that local officials have identified the man who agents wrestled to the ground as he allegedly resisted arrest before the shooting as a U.S. citizen.
The man, whose name has not been released, was a 37-year-old resident of Minneapolis with no criminal record, O'Hara said.
The Department of Homeland Security said in a statement that an alleged illegal alien wanted for deadly assault approached Border Patrol officers with a handgun. When officers tried to disarm him, he resisted and an agent fired "defensive shots."
