Anti-ICE agitator allegedly bites off federal officer’s finger during Minneapolis attack

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin shared a photo on social media Saturday of a federal law enforcement officer’s severed finger after an anti-ICE agitator in Minneapolis allegedly bit it off.

“In Minneapolis, these rioters attacked our law enforcement officer and one of them bit off our HSI officer’s finger,” McLaughlin wrote in the post. “He will lose his finger.”

She shared photos of two people seemingly in custody, though it is unclear which person is the alleged biter.

Additional details about the assault have not yet been released, though ongoing protests have escalated after the deaths of two U.S. citizens during immigration enforcement operations in the blue city.

ICE SAYS 2 DEMONSTRATORS WERE ARRESTED IN MINNESOTA FOR ALLEGEDLY ASSAULTING OFFICERS

Hours before McLaughlin’s post, a Border Patrol agent was captured on video fatally shooting an armed man in Minneapolis amid a crowd of agitators.

The 37-year-old man, a U.S. citizen from Minneapolis, allegedly approached agents and then “violently resisted,” while armed with a 9 mm pistol and two magazines, according to Homeland Security officials.

Border Patrol chief Greg Bovino said during a news conference Saturday it “look[ed] like a situation where an individual wanted to do maximum damage and massacre law enforcement.”

“About 200 rioters arrived at the scene and began to obstruct and assault law enforcement,” Bovino said. “We will not allow violence against our law enforcement officers, and we need state and local help. … [Minneapolis] Mayor [Jacob] Frey and [Minneapolis Police Department] Chief Brian O’Hara, just a few minutes ago, did the opposite of that by omitting the fact that the suspect had a gun and magazines full of ammunition.”

He reiterated that those who obstruct law enforcement are in violation of the law and will be arrested.

It is unclear who allegedly bit the agent’s finger off, though officials released photos of two potential suspects. (Tricia McLaughlin/X)

The Minnesota National Guard confirmed Saturday that, in addition to troops previously being mobilized at the direction of Gov. Tim Walz, the Hennepin County Sheriff’s Office requested additional support, and more soldiers will be brought in.

Detroit shines red for ALS kickoff & lighting ceremony

DETROIT, MICH (WXYZ) — In partnership with The ALS Association, downtown Detroit parks will shine red May 10–16 in recognition of ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease) Awareness month.

A special kickoff event will take place from 7:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. on Sunday, May 10, in Campus Martius Park. The event will allow families impacted by ALS to connect, learn about upcoming initiatives, and take part in a meaningful “END ALS” photo moment under the illuminated park lights.
