- •Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara confirmed the man, aged 51, died, and refused ICE demands to leave, urging police to secure the scene.

In a Saturday showdown that reads like a WWE match with government badges, six federal agents in South Minneapolis decided to get up-close and personal with a 51-year-old man—roughly the age most people start considering Midol. Footage from a loyal local business captured the agents doing tactical group hugs before at least one decided firing multiple shots at the downed man was the choreography for success. Police Chief Brian O'Hara rebuffed ICE's request to play hide-and-seek while preserving crime scene vibes. Governor Tim Walz was so disturbed he rang up the White House calling for an urgent 'pull the violent, untrained officers out now' RSVP. Meanwhile, tear gas turned the protest into an impromptu onion-fest as Minneapolis streets stayed spicy for round two of collective civic frustration.
