A tragic shooting unfolded Wednesday morning at a US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in Dallas, leaving multiple people shot and at least one dead, according to law enforcement officials familiar with the situation.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem confirmed that the suspect died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. “Details are still emerging but we can confirm there were multiple injuries and fatalities,” Noem posted on X, adding that the motive behind the attack remains unknown.

Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons told CNN that three people were shot and taken to a hospital, though their identities have not been released. “Preliminary information is a possible sniper,” Lyons said. “We have three individuals that are down at this time. We’re not sure on their condition. They’ve been taken to the hospital.”

The facility houses ICE employees, civilians, and immigrant detainees.

This marks at least the third shooting incident targeting an ICE or Customs and Border Protection facility in Texas this year. On July 4, a coordinated assault at the Prairieland Detention Center near Fort Worth left a police officer shot in the neck. Days later, a 27-year-old man opened fire on a Border Patrol facility in McAllen before being killed by police.

Amid the chaos, Dallas Cowboys rookie wide receiver Ryan Flournoy revealed his deep concern for his older brother, who works at the ICE facility in Dallas. According to sources close to the player, Flournoy has not been able to contact his brother since the incident. “He’s shaken and desperate for updates,” one team insider said. The Cowboys organization has offered support as Flournoy anxiously awaits word from his family.

The story is still developing, with federal and local authorities working to determine the shooter’s motive and provide updates on the victims’ conditions.

Bears Could Get Huge Boost to Pass Rush for ‘MNF’ vs. Commanders
Bears defensive end Austin Booker could return in Week 6. The Chicago Bears could receive a significant boost to their pass rush when they take on the Washington Commanders for Monday Night Football in Week 6. The Bears are now eligible to designate second-year defensive end Austin Booker for return from the injured reserve list after he missed the first four games of the season. Booker had shone in the preseason and seemed the likely choice to serve as the Bears‘ top rotational pass rusher behind veterans Montez Sweat and Dayo Odeyingbo coming into the 2025 season, but he suffered a knee injury in August that forced the team to place him on the short-term injured reserve list after the 53-man roster cutdown.

You Do It?   Brain Journal While the Bears have not laid out an expected return timeline for Booker, they will have the option of designating him for return to practice in Week 6 if they feel he has made enough progress in his injury recovery. Once the Bears designate him for return, they will have 21 days to activate him to the roster or else must leave him on IR for the year. The Bears could provide clues to Booker’s status when they hold their first practice of the week on Wednesday and issue their first injury report for Sunday’s prime-time date with the Commanders. They would need to activate Booker by Saturday afternoon at the latest for him to have a chance of suiting up for them on Monday Night Football. The Bears (2-2) will take on the Commanders (3-2) at 8:15 p.m. ET next Monday.
