You will understand if I don't believe a word of the DHS statement.

A man shot while surrounded by federal agents in Minneapolis on Saturday was armed, according to a Department of Homeland Security official who said the individual “had a firearm with two magazines.”

The situation, the official noted, is evolving and provided a photo of the purported firearm, which appears to be a Sig Sauer Emperor Scorpion.

It’s not clear whether the man was holding the gun when he was shot. It is also unclear if he had a permit to carry the firearm, which is required in the state.
