DHS described the vehicle's passenger as "a Venezuelan illegal alien affiliated with the transnational Tren de Aragua prostitution ring" who had been involved in a recent shooting in Portland.

When the Border Patrol agents identified themselves to the vehicle's occupants the driver tried to run them over, the department said in a written statement.

"Fearing for his life and safety, an agent fired a defensive shot," the statement said.

"The driver drove off with the passenger, fleeing the scene."

CBS News: ICE Agent in Minneapolis Incident Part of ‘a Specially Trained Tactical Unit’​

CBS News cited a senior DHS official as a source, noting that the agent “is a member of the ICE ERO Special Response Team (SRT) — a specially trained tactical unit within ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations.”

SRT provides high-risk operational support for immigration enforcement actions, including executing arrest and search warrants, responding to barricaded subjects, transporting dangerous detainees, and assisting with riot control or disturbances at detention facilities. SRT members receive advanced training in tactical operations, firearms, defensive tactics, and crowd control, and they are deployed when situations exceed the capabilities of standard ERO officers.

This is a far cry from the “untrained thugs” connotation used by Rep. Daniel Goldman (D) when he criticized ICE’s actions on X Wednesday.
