The FBI on Sunday signaled it is looking into a Minneapolis confrontation in which conservative journalist Nick Sortor alleged a protester stole his camera and dragged him down the street with a car as he tried to recover it.
Shortly after Sortor posted video of the incident to X on Sunday, an account affiliated with the FBI reposted the footage with the message “We’re on it,” signaling federal authorities were aware of the allegations. The violent incident marked one of several that took place in Minnesota on Sunday amid the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown, known as “Operation Metro Surge,” in Minneapolis.
