Shots fired after federal police in Minneapolis struggle to subdue man brandishing gun amid protests, video shows

Shots rang out in Minneapolis early Saturday after federal police tried to subdue a man who was waving around a gun, according to law enforcement sources and video posted to social media.

A 39-second clip showed about half a dozen cops struggling with someone on the sidewalk in front of a donut shop at 26th Street and Nicollet Avenue, when the gunfire erupted.

The officers appeared to scatter after the shot went off, according to the footage.

The shooting happened after the man brandished a firearm with two magazines, a law enforcement source told The Post.

In a statement, city officials urged residents to stay calm and avoid the area.

“We are aware of reports of another shooting involving federal law enforcement in the area of 26th Street W and Nicollet Ave. We are working to confirm additional details,” the statement said.

It is sounding like he was Antifa looking to kill an ICE agent.

This is where the treasonous paid rioters turn against America. They are out their kissing foreign asses left and right. The rioters are not Americans. They are turd munchers who are rioting to keep the feds from investigating their theft of billions of U.S. Taxapayer dollars. This crap going on in Minniesomalia make JaySix look like a Girl Scout cookie stand. Very low I.Q. maggots thinking that they can shoot and murder federal employees. What we are seeing right now in Minniesomalia is a result of treasonous Dipsh*t skanky “judges” using political power the ahos don’t have and the worthless Supremes sitting on their thumbs.

Any short-barrel semi- or full-automatic rifle with two magazines duct-taped together.

Fixed.

Like my dad always said, you pull a gun on a cop and 99% of the time you will walk away dead.

“Who throws down with the cops with a $2,000 piece?”

Leftist agitators who lack experience with firearms and demonstrate no respect for the Second Amendment.

How long will they justify pulling a gun and make him a martyr?

Honestly if someone’s pointing a gun at me and I had the option of shooting my gun at them first vice swinging nun chucks at them, the gun option is always first.

Looks like a customized Sig P226. Nice gun, I am thinking about buying one.

Maybe a good approach would be to pull ICE out and tell Walz “Fine. Have your sanctuary state, but as of now you get ZERO Federal money for anything.”

HSA is saying that while ICE was engaged in a targeted operation against an illegal, someone came up to them with a weapon.

This is all on Walz and Frey.

Its getting to be past time for Trump to send in the troops. The ICE agents are supposed to be serving warrants and picking up illegals not having to stand down angry crowds all day. That’s not their job.

No. Pulling ICE would give them ground to declare victory. This is civil war and they must be defeated by any means necessary.

Tear gas and rubber bullets are nonlethal.

Other side: A loaded handgun with two extra magazines.

Saturday night pimp special. Somebody should have told the aho to NOT TAKE A GUN to a “peaceful violent riot.”

Fox News man just said the rioters were “prepared in advance” and “quickly got together and knew where to assemble” and had continued to communicate on where to move and what to do against ICE.

They had food and drink ready and distributed these to the rioters in the streets.

Valuable information for the dimwitted American people to hear.
