Multiple shooters opened fire on a federal immigration enforcement facility in Phoenix on Tuesday afternoon, striking the building’s exterior and windows with numerous rounds while employees worked inside. The FBI has launched an investigation into the brazen attack that left no injuries but extensive property damage at the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations center.
Federal Building Struck Multiple Times
The shooting occurred on the afternoon of July 14, 2026, at the Enforcement and Removal Operations building located on North Central Avenue in Phoenix. According to the FBI Phoenix field office, one or more unidentified suspects discharged multiple rounds that struck various parts of the structure’s exterior. Video footage from FOX 10 Phoenix captured the aftermath, showing several bullet holes penetrating the building’s windows. ICE sources confirmed the extensive damage to the facility, though investigators have not disclosed exactly how many rounds were fired or from what type of weapons.
Federal authorities have released no information regarding potential suspects or motives behind the attack. The FBI is asking anyone with information about the shooting to contact investigators by calling 1-800-CALL-FBI or submitting tips through their website at tips.fbi.gov. No arrests have been announced, and the investigation remains active as agents work to identify those responsible for targeting the federal immigration facility.
Attacks Against ICE Officers Surge Nationwide
The Phoenix shooting comes amid what the Department of Homeland Security describes as a dramatic escalation in violence against ICE personnel across the country. DHS recently announced that assaults against ICE officers have skyrocketed by more than 1,300 percent, while vehicle attacks have surged by over 3,300 percent. In response to these threats, the department will now require every ICE arrest team to include at least one officer equipped with a body camera.
A DHS spokesperson emphasized the urgency of the body camera initiative, stating that ensuring all ICE law enforcement officers nationwide have cameras represents a top priority given the increase in attacks. The spokesperson also cited what the department characterizes as repeated misinformation spread by media outlets and politicians in sanctuary jurisdictions about ICE operations. The new camera requirement aims to provide documentation of enforcement actions while protecting officers facing heightened risks during field operations.
Federal Response and Safety Measures
The attack on the Phoenix facility underscores growing concerns about the safety of federal immigration enforcement personnel and buildings. While no employees were injured in Tuesday’s shooting, the incident raises questions about security protocols at ICE facilities nationwide. Federal investigators continue working to determine whether the attack was coordinated, whether multiple shooters were involved, and what motivated the assault on the federal building. The FBI has not indicated whether they believe the shooting represents an isolated incident or part of a broader pattern of threats against immigration enforcement facilities.
This will continue and accelerate. These America hating thugs know that even when they are identified nothing will be done as the courts will slap them on the wrist
as they support these thugs. Our country has become a lawless quagmire for law abiding citizens trying to do their job.
Law enforcement needs to arrest these demonrat pos that keep calling for violence against ICE agents and put them in jail with no bond until their trials
I’m glad no one got hurt, but I hope the shooter doesn’t get caught. Get rid of ICE or they receive the SAME training as the US Marshalls or State Troopers, and Don’t wear a mask and wear a body camera.
I agree with you about the training & the body cams. But,,, I have to disagree about the masks, as long as the Extremists continue to dox & threaten the ICE Agents and their Families, with bodily harm or even death, for doing the job they were sworn to do. I have no problem at all with them wearing masks to protect their identity. The behavior on the Left is atrocious and anyone who makes these threats should be arrested by those US Marshalls and imprisoned for a lengthy time after conviction.
start killing a few of them they will stop
One you catch them, hand them over to some citizens…….
why would anyone want the ICS agents to NOT wear a mask while the dumbocrat protesters wear them and also body armor. Attack a federal employee and get a life sentence. That should quell some of the demonstrators. Need to also heavily fine those in the government, like Bernie, aoc and schumer for inspiring violence against the agents.
