Did he fall victim to that violent and heated rhetoric by a Mayor Frey, a Governor Walz,

Look, Dana, they're trying to portray border patrol agents and ICE agents as Gestapo, Nazi, and many other words.

Did this individual fall victim, as many others have, to that type of heated rhetoric?

Dana, we don't need a suspect's help in an active law enforcement scene.

When you say suspect, what is he suspected of?

That's an active law enforcement scene.

He knew that was an active law enforcement scene.

He wasn't a suspect.

Especially when the officers approached him, and it's very evident he did not need to be where he was.

You know, Dana, every situation is different.

What our officers are faced with here in Minneapolis are chaotic, very difficult and violent situations in which individuals, and this suspect is not the only one to bring a loaded weapon to a riot.

The situations are chaotic.

changing follow directions of for law enforcement don't inject yourself knowingly beforehand into a law enforcement situation with respect it feels as though in some ways you're blaming the victim here the victim the victims are the border patrol agents I'm not blaming the border patrol agents the victim are the border patrol agents the suspect put himself in that situation the victims are the border patrol agents there

We heard the law enforcement officer say, gun, gun, gun.

So at some point, they knew there was a gun.

So again, that is going to be part of that investigation as to what was happening.

on the ground there between those victims, the border patrol agent victims, and the suspect?

every situation is different what our officers are faced with here in Minneapolis are chaotic very difficult and violent situations in which individuals and this suspect is not the only one to bring a loaded weapon to a riot the situations are chaotic and ever-changing follow directions of for law enforcement don't inject yourself knowingly beforehand into a law enforcement situation

The victims are the border patrol agents.

I'm not blaming the border patrol agents.
