Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem on Saturday labeled the alleged actions of the suspect killed in a Border Patrol-involved shooting in Minneapolis as “domestic terrorism”. Sec. Noem also accused Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz of inciting violence against federal officers. “When you perpetuate violence against a government because of ideological reasons and for reasons to resist and perpetuate violence, that is the definition of domestic terrorism,” Noem said during a news conference at FEMA headquarters in Washington, D.C.
The shooting was followed by unrest in the area, Noem said. “Hundreds of protesters then showed up at the scene,” she said. “They began to obstruct and to assault law enforcement officers,” she added. “We saw objects being thrown at them, including ice and other objects, and a rampant assault began.” Noem went on to say, “A [Homeland Security Investigation] HSI agent’s finger was bitten off.”
