Eagles WR Worried After Brother Caught in Dallas ICE Shooting, At Least 2 Detainees Injured
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, Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Xavier Gipson revealed his deep concern for his older brother, who works at the ICE facility in Dallas. According to sources close to the player, Gipson has not been able to contact his brother since the incident. “He’s shaken and desperate for updates,” one team insider said. The Eagles organization has offered support as Gipson 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.
