Morgan was allegedly driving an unmarked, rented SUV illegally on the shoulder of the eastbound lanes near the Portland Avenue exit.Moriarty said Morgan was appearing to bypass slower traffic and going after the victims in their car.Then, according to the Hennepin County DA, the alleged victim’s vehicle moved into a legal lane and Morgan moved alongside him. The ICE went on to allegedly threaten the driver and passenger with his gun.“After the victim’s vehicle moved back into the legal lane, Mr. Morgan sped up to pull alongside the victim’s vehicle,” Moriarty claimed at the press conference. “Mr. Morgan then visibly slowed his vehicle to match the pace of the victim’s vehicle, opened his window, and pointed his duty weapon directly at both victims in the other vehicle while continuing to drive illegally on the shoulder.”As KSTP notes, these are the first criminal charges against federal law enforcement to come out of Operation Metro Surge, which was launched last winter by the Trump Administration.While the operation was a success, two far-left protesters, Renee Good and Alex Pretti, were killed during encounters with ICE officers.KSTP reported that Moriarty claimed during the press conference that her office was able to bring charges in Morgan’s case because it was headed by the Minnesota State Patrol and followed supposedly “typical” processes of information-gathering.The 35-year-old Morgan, who is from Temple Hills, Maryland, faces two counts of second-degree assault with a dangerous weapon. He was charged via warrant and is not in custody at this time.According to the Office of the Revisor of Statutes in Minnesota, second-degree assault in Minnesota is a felony involving the use of a dangerous weapon.Those convicted face up to seven years in prison and a $14,000 fine.Per KSTP, Moriarty last month urged citizens to submit evidence of supposed ‘illegal’ activity by Homeland Security agents.She also stated that her office was looking into at least 17 incidents for potential criminal charges.The post Far-Left Minnesota District Attorney Announces FELONY Assault Charges Against ICE Agent in Minneapolis (VIDEO) appeared first on The Gateway Pundit.
