So they committed an unlawful entry into an occupied dwelling, while in possession of dangerous weapons, and then committed an assault on someone in the building. I'm not a lawyer, but I'm pretty sure that's a first-degree felony under Minessota law:

The harshest penalties apply to first-degree burglary offenses in Minnesota. A person commits burglary in the first degree when the crime involves:

  • entry into a dwelling that is or becomes occupied at any time the burglar is inside the dwelling
  • possession of a dangerous weapon, explosive, or any item used to make the victim believe it's a weapon, or
  • assault on someone in the building or connected property.

That is what happens when ICE goes on record saying they are above the law and anyone attempting to reign the in will be seen to be obstructing federal al agents, even local prosecutors

Too bad they are above all laws.
