Part 6/11:
Special Agent in Charge of the FBI Dallas Field Office, Joe Rothrock, outlined the ongoing investigation, emphasizing Yan's extensive premeditation. Yan’s digital footprint includes online searches for facility layouts, tracking apps, and information on ICE personnel locations. He legally obtained an eight-millimeter bolt-action rifle used in the shooting.
Investigators confirmed Yan acted solo, with no evidence of accomplices or prior memberships in extremist organizations. However, he expressed overt anti-government sentiments, coupled with a handwritten note articulating a desire to "cause terror" and impact ICE employees nationwide.
