Top Justice Department officials announced Thursday the arrest of a self-described “Anti-ICE Antifa TERRORIST” in Minneapolis who is charged with threatening to assault and kill federal immigration agents.

Federal authorities took 37-year-old Kyle Wagner into custody after prosecutors alleged he repeatedly posted violent threats against Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers on social media last month, encouraging followers to attack, “get your hands on” and even kill federal officers.
