CBS News reported: Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara said at a news briefing that the man was 37-year-old American citizen who lived in Minneapolis. Two Department of Homeland Security officials told CBS News that the man had a firearm and two magazines. O'Hara said police believe he was a lawful gun owner with a permit to carry. He did not identify the man but said his only previous interaction with law enforcement was traffic violations. DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin said that officers were conducting a "targeted operation against an illegal alien wanted for violent assault" when "an individual approached U.S. Border Patrol officers with a 9 mm semi-automatic handgun." McLaughlin said the officers attempted to disarm the subject but the person "violently resisted." McLaughlin said an agent fired "defensive shots" because he feared "for his life and the lives and safety of fellow officers." First aid was rendered, but the man died, officials said. McLaughlin said he was pronounced dead at the scene, while O'Hara said he was pronounced dead at a hospital. McLaughlin said the person had no identification and said it looked "like a situation where an individual wanted to do maximum damage and massacre law enforcement." The name of the man who was killed has not been released, at this time.
