Minneapolis chaos escalates: Federal prison guards in riot gear block hateful mob after another ICE shooting
Tensions are rising rapidly in Minneapolis, Minnesota, after yet another ICE-involved shooting.
On Wednesday night, video footage from journalist Nick Sortor went viral, showing one of the latest developments in the conflict.
‘This federal response is growing every day. Send in the MARINES next!’
The video shows federal officers with identification indicating that they are from the Bureau of Prisons, a major development in the federal government’s efforts to control the situation. The prison guards are wearing riot gear and blockading a street to keep a rowdy crowd of rioters from the DHS agents behind them.
Other videos from the area appear to show rioters breaking into police vehicles and stealing police equipment. Some also reportedly threw rocks, ice, and incendiary devices at officers.

“This federal response is growing every day. Send in the MARINES next!” Sortor captioned the BOP video, in part.
Sortor attributed this development to Attorney General Pam Bondi. Blaze News has reached out to the DOJ for comment.
At the end, the video pans around to show a view of dozens of protesters near the line of guards.
One rioter can be heard shouting, “Why the f**k are you here?” and “What more do you f**king want?” before some in the crowd begin chanting, “They’re not qualified!” at the guards.
The video was posted just hours after an ICE agent was “ambushed by three individuals” and was forced to fire a defensive shot at an illegal Venezuelan alien during an attempted arrest, DHS claimed.
The alien suffered a non-life-threatening gunshot wound to the leg and was taken to the hospital, as was the ICE officer.
Trump threatened to invoke the Insurrection Act on Thursday morning given the rising tensions between law enforcement and the increasingly violent rioters.
