Description:

A federal agent shot and wounded a man in north Minneapolis Wednesday night, sparking protests that led to agents deploying tear gas. City officials say the man was shot after a vehicle chase and an apparent struggle with a federal agent near 24th and Lyndale Avenue North.


Federal officials say the man and two other people assaulted a federal agent. The man was shot in the leg. The Department of Homeland Security says the wounded man and a federal agent were hospitalized with what are believed to be non-life-threatening injuries.


All four Democrats representing Minnesota in the U.S. House have joined a call to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. They are among 70 lawmakers who have signed on to articles of impeachment introduced Wednesday by Illinois Democrat Robin Kelly.
