Noem on Minneapolis Shooting: “People Need To Stop Using Their Vehicles As Weapons”
DHS Secretary Kristi Noem held a press conference on Wednesday evening following the ICE-related fatal shooting in Minneapolis this morning.
KRISTI NOEM, SECRETARY OF THE DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY: You know people need to stop using their vehicles as weapons. This domestic act of terrorism to use your vehicle to try to kill law enforcement officers is going to stop. And I’m asking the Department of Justice to prosecute it as domestic terrorism because it’s clear that it’s being coordinated, people are being trained and told how to use their vehicles to impede law enforcement operations, and then to run over anybody who gets in their way while they go out there and try to disrupt peace and public safety. And Americans deserve better.
