Heroic off-duty ICE agent guns down active shooter in LA
Story by Emily Crane • 16h
A heroic off-duty ICE agent thwarted a possible active shooting by gunning down his neighbor as the man was firing shots into the air at their Los Angeles apartment complex, the feds said.
The agent, who hasn’t been identified publicly, jumped into action when his neighbor opened fire with a rifle at the complex on Roscoe Boulevard in Northridge on New Year’s Eve, according to authorities.
Police are still probing the shooting but the Department of Homeland Security quickly defended the agent, insisting his bravery saved lives.
“In order to protect his life and that of others, he was forced to defensively use his weapon and exchanged gunfire with the shooter,” DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin told The Post in a statement.
