Texas ICE Facility Shooter Identified
The deceased shooter who killed at least two people at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility on Wednesday has reportedly been identified as 29-year-old Joshua Jahn.
The shooter was found dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound at the scene near the Dallas facility and left “anti-ICE” written on a bullet casing, officials previously said. NBC News and The New York Post reported the suspect’s name, citing law enforcement sources.
This morning just before 7am local time, an individual fired multiple rounds at a Dallas, Texas ICE facility, killing one, wounding several others, before taking his own life. FBI, DHS, ATF are on the ground with Dallas PD and state authorities.

“The shooter fired indiscriminately at the ICE building, including at a van in the sallyport where the victims were shot,” the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said in a Wednesday statement, adding that the three victims were detainees.
Jahn was arrested in 2016 and charged with delivering marijuana, a felony, according to Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) records. He pleaded guilty and served five years of probation.
The Dallas facility where Wednesday’s shooting occurred is a building for Enforcement Removal Operations (ERO), the sub-agency of ICE that conducts arrests and deportations. Two victims wounded in the shooting have died, though no law enforcement officials were hurt, officials said.
The same facility was targeted with a bomb threat in August, the DHS noted. Other shootings occurred in Texas at an ICE detention center in Alvaredo on July 4 and a Border Patrol facility in McAllen three days later.
“This vile attack was motivated by hatred for ICE,” said Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. “For months, we’ve been warning politicians and the media to tone down their rhetoric about ICE law enforcement before someone was killed.”
“This shooting must serve as a wake-up call to the far-left that their rhetoric about ICE has consequences,” Noem said.
