    Minneapolis police confirmed the person killed was a 37-year-old American citizen who lived in Minneapolis. The shooting occurred near Nicollet Avenue. and 26th Street in south Minneapolis at about 9:15 a.m. Department of Homeland Security officials told CBS News that the man had a firearm and two magazines. Minneapolis police chief Brian O’Hara said police believe he was a lawful gun owner with a permit to carry.

    Fucking weasel ass CBS reporting. The man was tackled to the ground by six agents and bludgeoned in the head before any of them realized he was armed.

      And he never even went for his gun. The agents saw the gun without him going for it, took it from him, and then shot him after he didn’t even have a gun on him anymore.
