Joshua was proficient with his parents’ gun, according to Noah Jahn. However, Noah stated that ‘he’s not a marksman, that’s for sure,’ adding that ‘He would not be able to make any shots like that.’
According to the sibling, he met his brother at his parents’ house two weeks ago, and nothing appeared unusual to him.

ICE Shooter’s Mother Linked to Progressive Political Groups
One detainee was shot dead and two others were injured at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement office in Dallas early Wednesday morning, authorities say.
The victims were migrant detainees, officials said, confirming that no law enforcement officers were hurt. The shooting came as a sniper from a nearby building fired ‘indiscriminately’ from at an unmarked van that was transporting the migrants to the short-term ICE facility, according to police.
The suspect turned the gun on himself as police closed in, officials added. The message “ANTI-ICE” was scrawled on unspent shell casings found near his body, leading to speculation that the shooting was politically motivated and an attack on Trump’s immigration policies.
