The shooter was found dead on the roof of a nearby immigration attorney’s office from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.Jahn, 29, grew up in Texas and knew how to use a rifle owned by his parents, his older brother Noah Jahn told NBC News, clarifying: “He’s not a marksman, that’s for sure.” The suspected shooter “didn’t have strong feelings about ICE as far as [he] knew,” the brother added.The investigation is ongoing, but “one of the unspent shell casings” recovered had “ANTI ICE,” written on it, according to FBI Director Kash Patel said in a social media post.No ICE agents were injured in the attack, he said.Vance says he’s ‘mourning and rooting for’ Dallas ICE shooting victimsAfter his remarks in Concord, North Carolina, Vice President JD Vance discussed the Dallas ICE facility shooting, offering prayers for the victims.”We’re all mourning and rooting for and praying for everybody who was injured at that ICE facility, and as far as we know, it looks like some of the detainees, in other words, some of the potential illegal aliens, were some of those who are affected,” the vice president said. “Look, just because we don’t support illegal aliens, we don’t want them to be executed by violent assassins engaged in political violence.”Vance said generally that if your political rhetoric encourages violence against law enforcement then “you can go straight to hell.” Democrats needed to stop saying that everyone who disagrees with them is a Nazi, he added. That is the way to stop political violence, he said.Andrew Feinberg24 September 2025 21:17WATCH: Vance blames ‘violent left-wing extremist’ and says ICE facility shooter was ‘politically motivated’Vance blames “violent left-wing extremist” and says ICE facility shooter was “politically motivated”Kelly Rissman24 September 2025 20:36’It will take all of us… to quell this epidemic of violence’: DNC chair says in wake of attackDNC Chair Ken Martin denounced the attack at the Dallas ICE facility and said it takes “all of us” to quell “epidemic of violence” as some Republicans point fingers at Democrats in the wake of the shooting.“Today, America experienced another horrific act of violence that killed two ICE detainees and injured another in Dallas, Texas,” Martin said in a statement, adding he was praying for the victims and labeling the incident as a “senseless and cowardly attack.”“Let me be clear: It will take all of us — not just one side of the aisle or the other — to quell this epidemic of violence, which has no place in our democracy.
