A federal immigration enforcement operation in north Minneapolis ended with a man shot in the leg Wednesday night after an ICE agent was reportedly attacked outside an apartment building.
The incident unfolded shortly before 7 p.m. on the 600 block of 24th Avenue North.
EMS radio traffic indicated paramedics were sent to the scene for a male with a gunshot wound to the thigh. He was transported to North Memorial Hospital.
Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara later said the wound was non-life-threatening and the ICE agent involved was also hospitalized, according to the Department of Homeland Security.
Early reports suggested two people may have been shot, but EMS confirmed only one gunshot victim.
DHS confirmed the ICE agent and the man who was shot were both hospitalized. The agency said the two other people involved were also taken into custody. Authorities have not released the names of those involved or announced any criminal charges.
The shooting occurred one week after 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good was fatally shot by an ICE agent during a separate federal operation in south Minneapolis on Jan. 7.
As of publication, the investigation into the shooting and the ICE agent’s use of force remains ongoing.
