Two people are dead and another remains in critical condition after a shooting Wednesday morning at a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) field office in Dallas. Authorities say the suspected gunman also died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Dallas police reported officers responded to the facility on Empress Street around 6:40 a.m. Investigators believe the shooter positioned himself on the rooftop of an attorney’s office across the street, firing multiple rounds into the ICE detention building and sallyport area. All three victims were detainees being held at the facility. No law enforcement officers were injured. By 10 a.m., ICE confirmed the scene was secured.
Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons told CNN the attack reflects rising threats against immigration officers. “My hearts and prayers go out to my officers and agents … this just shows the violence has been increased against ICE officers and agents,” Lyons said.

The Dallas facility serves as a temporary holding site, where detainees typically spend several hours before transfer. On average, about 47 people are held there daily, according to ICE data reviewed by CBS News.
State and federal leaders quickly condemned the shooting. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott pledged support for ICE operations, calling the incident an “assassination” that would not disrupt arrests or deportations. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem called the violence “unprecedented” and urged prayers for the injured.
This marks the second attack on an ICE facility in Texas this year. On July 4, armed assailants targeted the Prairieland Detention Center near Fort Worth, wounding a police officer. Days later, a gunman opened fire on Border Patrol agents in McAllen.
Authorities have not released the Dallas shooter’s identity or motive. ATF and FBI agents are assisting the Dallas Police Department with the ongoing investigation.
