The suspect in the fatal shooting at a U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement facility in Dallas has been identified as Joshua Jahn, law enforcement sources confirmed to the New York Post.

Jahn, 29, died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound at the scene, where a stripper clip with the words "ANTI-ICE" was found with four others.

"What I can also share with you is that early evidence that we’ve seen from rounds that were found near the suspected shooter contains messages that are anti-ICE in nature," Dallas FBI Special Agent in Charge Joe Rothrock said during a press conference via NBC News.

Rothrock confirmed that the three victims' identities would not be released publicly at this time, however, all were confirmed to be detainees. Two people were confirmed dead, included the suspect who died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

"While we’re not releasing identities of any victims at this time, what I can confirm for you is no members of law enforcement were hurt during this attack," Rothrock said.

FBI Director Kash Patel shared a photo of the alleged shell casings found at the scene, which showed one with "ANTI-ICE" written on it.

The suspected shooter was reported to have opened fire from an adjacent building, the Dallas Police Department confirmed in a post shared on its X account. The Dallas ICE facility had previously faced a bomb threat, Department of Homeland Security spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin told FOX News.
