ICE agent fires shots at man after being hit by SUV
ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — An Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent fired shots Sunday at a Cuban immigrant living in the U.S. illegally after the man struck the agent and another one with an SUV in Minnesota’s state capital, the Department of Homeland Security said.
The man also bit an ICE agent as officers subdued him outside his apartment in St. Paul after he tried to flee on foot, Assistant Homeland Security Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said in an email.
The man wasn’t hurt, and the injuries received by the agents struck by the SUV were not life-threatening, though he and the agents were taken to the hospital for evaluation, McLaughlin said.

McLaughlin said the man detained Sunday entered the U.S. in 2024 through a now-discontinued program implemented by former President Joe Biden’s administration allowing migrants without proper entry papers into the country while their claims for asylum were reviewed.

Feisty little asshole, isn’t he?
BRING UP THE TREBUCHET!!
“Minnesota father”
There. FIFY.
You can’t hate the media enough.
Maryland Senator Chris Van Hollen is already on the phone making reservations at The Rusty Pelican for margaritas with Minnesota Father.
Gitmo resident perhaps
Waiting for a nutcase Minnesota judge to declare that he’s not a flight risk and release him.
I wish the ICE agent’s aim had been better (although returning fire after being hit by a vehicle is something we don’t train for normally).
Send him back to Cuba. Ferry him about 100 Nautical miles off the coast of his homeland, drop him off and tell him to start swimming home.
Lol. That’s launching him from Miami.
That’s nearly a fact! So many hungry sharks 🙂
I’ll have a Barrett, please.
