Three detainees were shot at the Dallas Customs Immigration and Customs Field Office during a movement in the installation of the installation on Wednesday morning, ABC News told ABC News.
ICE said in a statement now eliminated that two people died and that one was injured when an armed man shot “indiscriminately” in the building and the people who moved through the insured hall of the installation.
The shooter, who seemed to “be a sniper from a high position” shooting from “to a couple of hundreds of yards” away, died of a self -inflicted gunshot wound, told the director of Ice Todd Lyons to ABC News.

The officers exchanged fire with the shooter, said Lyons, and ICE said that none of their officers was injured.
The objective was not clear, but the incident occurs when ICE has been increasing deportation efforts throughout the country and national security officials have warned that agents and officers of their agencies have faced greater violence and threats.
Two Texas facilities were attacked this July: a police officer was shot in an ice detention center in Alvarado and an armed man opened fire at the entrance of the annex of the border patrol sector in McAllen.
Lyons said he would put all ice facilities on a higher alert to protect agents and civilians who carry out the agency’s mission.
