One ICE Detainee Reportedly Killed in Shooting at Dallas Facility
The suspected shooter was also reported dead of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Sep 24, 2025
Update (5:00 pm ET):
The US Department of Homeland Security now says that only one of the three detainees shot in the incident has been confirmed dead and that the others are in critical condition. An earlier version of this story, based on local reporting, stated that two detainees had been killed.
Earlier:
Two detainees in the custody of immigration enforcement officials were killed and a third was wounded in a shooting in Dallas, Texas on Wednesday morning, according to local reporting.
As reported by local news station NBC Dallas-Forth Worth, the shooting occurred at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in the northwest area of the city.
All three people shot were ICE detainees. Two of the shooting victims have been pronounced dead, while the third has been taken to a nearby medical facility for treatment.
No ICE officers were hurt in the shooting, law enforcement officials told NBC Dallas-Fort Worth.
The person suspected of opening fire at the facility has also been reported dead from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Police are unsure whether the suspect in the shooting acted alone, and law enforcement sources told local news station WFAA that police are searching for additional potential shooters.
Despite that all those reportedly killed or wounded in the shooting were ICE detainees, and even though the motivation of the shooter is not yet known, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem framed the incident as an attack on law enforcement.
"While we don’t know motive yet, we know that our ICE law enforcement is facing unprecedented violence against them," she wrote on X. "It must stop. Please pray for the victims and their families."

At Least 120 Killed as Shootings and Explosions Stir Chaotic Scenes in Paris
Gunmen and bombers attacked busy restaurants, bars and a concert hall at six locations around Paris on Friday evening
Nov 13, 2015
This is a developing story...
Update (8:58 PM EDT): Paris in lockdown after deadly attacks
France 24 reports:
At least 120 people are reported to have died in a wave of simultaneous attacks in the French capital on Friday evening, an official at Paris City hall said early Saturday morning.
Gunmen and bombers attacked busy restaurants, bars and a concert hall at six locations around Paris on Friday evening, killing scores of people in what a shaken President Francois Hollande described as an unprecedented terrorist attack.
The apparently coordinated gun and bomb assault came as the country, a founder member of the US-led coalition waging air strikes against Islamic State group fighters in Syria and Iraq, was on high alert for terrorist attacks ahead of a global climate conference due to open later this month.
Hollande, who was attending an international football match with German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier when several explosions took place outside the national stadium, declared a state of emergency in the Paris region and announced the closure of France's borders to stop perpetrators escaping.
"This is a horror," the visibly shaken president said in a midnight television address to the nation before chairing an emergency cabinet meeting.
Earlier:
Reports coming out of Paris on Friday night indicate that multiple shootings and a series of explosions have left numerous people dead and others injured.
According to the BBC:
At least 18 people have been killed in several shootings in the French capital, Paris, as well as explosions at the Stade de France.
At least one man opened fire with an automatic gun at the Petit Cambodge restaurant in the 11th district.
Liberation newspaper reports four deaths. It also reports shootings near the Bataclan arts centre.
The Guardian, which is providing live updates here, subsequently added:
Police officials confirmed that there had been a shootout at a Paris restaurant in the 10th arrondissement amid busy Friday night bars and cafes. Then another shootout took place near the Bataclan concert venue in the nearby 11th arrondissment. Hostages have been taken at the Bataclan, police confirmed to AFP.
At around the same time, there was a series of explosions outside the Stade de France, north of Paris, during a France-Germany friendly football match. The French president Francois Hollande was at the match and was evacuated from the stadium to the French interior ministry for a crisis meeting.
A police official confirmed to Associated Press that there had been one explosion in a bar near the stadium.
