A sniper opened fire Wednesday morning from a rooftop near the Dallas Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility, critically injuring three people before taking his own life.
Authorities later discovered the gunman’s body on top of a nearby immigration attorney’s office.
Investigators reported that shell casings recovered at the scene contained messages expressing anti-ICE sentiment.

The attack remains under investigation, but officials confirmed the facility was directly targeted.
The shooting prompted swift responses across media and political circles.

On Fox News, Andrew Kolvet, producer for Charlie Kirk’s program, said the incident fit a troubling pattern of violence aimed at conservatives and government agencies associated with immigration enforcement.
Kolvet linked the Dallas shooting to earlier cases of political violence, calling for accountability from public figures whose rhetoric, he argued, fuels hostility.
“I see everything as being connected,” Kolvet said. “This shooting at an ICE facility—yeah, we don’t know all the details yet. I made some calls before coming on with you—and I’m being told that, you know, the thought is this person was attacking ICE. Our prayers are with anybody who was caught up in this violence.”
Kolvet also criticized comedian Jimmy Kimmel for comments made in recent broadcasts.
Last week, Kimmel incorrectly described Charlie Kirk’s killer as a “MAGA Republican,” a claim he did not retract when returning to air Tuesday after a suspension.
“When somebody like Jimmy Kimmel says that the shooter of Charlie was MAGA, what he’s really saying is that it’s okay to lie about conservatives, that their lives don’t matter, that his political agenda and cultural agenda are more important than the life of my friend who was just taken from us and robbed from us,” Kolvet said.
He drew a direct line between the rhetoric of prominent cultural figures and acts of violence.
“You see this with [Luigi] Mangione, you see this with Charlie Kirk, now you see it with this ICE facility. It’s not okay,” he said.

Kolvet added that public accountability is essential.
“When people like Jimmy Kimmel skirt the truth, when they refuse to take accountability for their actions, then that sends a signal that there’s a whole institutional machinery, apparatus that’s prepared to defend these evildoers, and that’s not okay,” he stated.
Kolvet said the responsibility rests with individuals in positions of influence to correct misinformation and acknowledge mistakes.
“What we need is, ‘I’m sorry. I lied. I was wrong. And I won’t do it again. And my apologies to the Kirk family and Erika Kirk,’” he said.

The Dallas shooting has heightened concerns about escalating violence directed at federal agencies and prominent conservatives.
While investigators continue to search for additional evidence about the suspect and his motivations, the incident has already reignited debate over the impact of political and cultural rhetoric on national security and public safety.
Federal officials have pledged a thorough investigation into the shooting, including the origin of the anti-ICE messages found with the suspect’s ammunition.
The Department of Homeland Security said it is coordinating with Dallas police and federal law enforcement to ensure the safety of ICE personnel and facilities nationwide.
