On Wednesday night, authorities say a federal officer shot a man in the leg when he was attacked with a shovel and broom handle in North Minneapolis. It was one week after an ICE agent fatally shot Renee Good, 37, in Minneapolis.

On Wednesday, federal officers wearing gas masks and helmets fired tear gas. Protesters threw rocks and shot fireworks.

“Several government vehicles were subsequently vandalized and broken into, and government property was stolen from inside the vehicles,” according to a FBI bulletin. “The FBI seeks information that will lead to the recovery of the stolen government property and/or the arrest of the individuals responsible for the destruction and theft of government property.”

Videos showed a locked storage box was pulled from the trunk of a federal vehicle and other items were stolen.

The FBI asks people to contact 800-CALL-FBI (800-225-5324) or go to tips.fbi.gov.
