ICE sources told that several bullet holes could be seen in the building’s windows. FOX 10 Phoenix crews also captured video from the scene showing the apparent damage.
“The FBI Phoenix field office is investigating a shooting incident that occurred on the afternoon of Tuesday, July 14, 2026, at the Enforcement and Removal Operations building located on North Central Ave. in Phoenix, AZ,” the FBI said in a statement. “According to the FBI, one or more unidentified people discharged rounds that struck the exterior in various parts of the structure. No injuries were reported in connection with this incident.”
The shooting comes as the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced ICE will require every arrest team to have an officer wearing a body camera, citing what it says has been a sharp rise in attacks against ICE personnel.
DHS said assaults against ICE officers have increased by more than 1,300%, while vehicle attacks have risen by more than 3,300%.

“ICE will ensure each arrest team has an individual wearing a body camera,” a DHS spokesperson said in a statement to . “Ensuring all of our ICE law enforcement officers have body cameras nationwide is a top priority for DHS — especially given the increase in attacks against our law enforcement, including a more than 1,300% increase in assaults against them and a 3,300% increase in vehicle attacks.”
“This is especially needed because the media and sanctuary politicians consistently spread smears about our law enforcement.”
