Incendiary device reportedly thrown at ICE building in Georgia, FBI agents investigating

Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) personnel and evidence response technicians are on site collecting evidence, the agency's Atlanta public affairs department said in an emailed statement.

An incendiary device was reportedly thrown at the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) building in downtown Atlanta, Georgia, on Tuesday night, according to reports. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is currently investigating the incident, with federal agents and evidence response technicians on site collecting evidence.

There is currently no known threat to public safety, and the investigation is ongoing, with no further details available at this time. This incident follows the shooting of a man by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in New York City earlier this month, which Mayor Zohran Mamdani condemned and called for ICE agents to be removed from the city.
