The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Minnesota on Tuesday announced that 15 Antifa members have been indicted for their alleged roles in conspiring to hinder federal immigration enforcement operations in Minneapolis earlier this year.
The suspects, 12 of whom are in custody, are all charged with conspiracy to impede or injure a federal officer, according to a 94-page criminal complaint, and some are charged with further crimes. Federal prosecutors allege that each suspect took part in a conspiracy to obstruct federal immigration enforcement officers, including ICE personnel, through force, intimidation and threats.
The suspects are alleged members of the Antifa cell Direct Action Minnesota Network (DAMN), a radical far-left group accused of coordinating operations against federal immigration officers.
Federal prosecutors maintain that the group use Signal chats to organize and carry out rapid response operations including coordinating street blockades, tracking federal vehicles, surveilling the ICE field office at the federal Whipple Building and other activities meant to stop immigration officials from conducting their business.

The government says that DAMN served as the hub for participants to share intelligence, plan actions, recruit volunteers and assign roles.
Below is a full list of the suspects and the charges they face:
- Isaac Auman Sant – conspiracy to impede or injure a federal officer, interstate stalking
- Emmett James Doyle – conspiracy to impede or injure a federal officer
- Cameron Kennedy – conspiracy to impede or injure a federal officer
- Callum Robinet – conspiracy to impede or injure a federal officer
- Erik Davis – conspiracy to impede or injure a federal officer
- Kyle Wagner – conspiracy to impede or injure a federal officer, solicitation of violence, interstate threats
- Hannah Margaret Van de Water Davis – conspiracy to impede or injure a federal office
- Treasure Cay Thoreson – conspiracy to impede or injure a federal officer
- Nathan Junho Kim – conspiracy to impede or injure a federal officer
- Alec Stewart – conspiracy to impede or injure a federal officer
- Douglas Misterek – conspiracy to impede or injure a federal officer
- Dustin Scott Beisell – conspiracy to impede or injure a federal officer
- William Morgan – conspiracy to impede or injure a federal officer, interstate stalking, assault on a federal officer, destruction of government property
- Natasha Rakotz – conspiracy to impede or injure a federal officer, assault on a federal officer resulting in bodily injury/use of a dangerous weapon
ANTI-ICE MINNEAPOLIS AGITATORS SET UP CHECKPOINT TO TRACK FEDERAL AGENTS
Isaac Sant is portrayed by prosecutors as one of the ringleaders of the conspiracy who allegedly organized meetings between anti-ICE factions, delivered shields and other equipment for “direct actions” against ICE and maintained a database of suspected federal immigration vehicles by tracking license plates.
He also allegedly coordinated “commuters” to follow federal immigration officials.
On May 4, according to the indictment, Sant personally followed a federal immigration officer from the Whipple Building in Minneapolis — a hub of anti-ICE activities — across state lines to Hudson, Wisconsin, leading to the interstate stalking charge.
William Morgan, the only suspect charged with four crimes, is also accused of interstate stalking for allegedly following a federal immigration officer on May 12 from the Whipple Building to near the officer’s home in Hudson.

Three days later, Morgan allegedly committed two more crimes by confronting an agent who was conducting an interview and physically assaulting him. He later was accused of kicking a federal vehicle, causing $1,000 in property damage, the complaint claims.
Natasha Rakotz was charged with assault on a federal officer resulting in bodily injury for allegedly driving her car into the path of a federal agent, striking and injuring him — similarly to how in a January incident in Minneapolis Renee Good was shot dead during an altercation where she ran her car into a federal immigration officer.
Kyle Wagner has been in custody since February, after encouraging followers to take up arms against federal agents. More charges were announced against him during Tuesday’s press conference.

On Jan. 8, 2026, Wagner posted a video warning ICE agents, “We’re f—ing coming for you.”
Prosecutors allege he urged followers to “get your guns,” and suggested identifying agents even if it had to be done “at the barrel of a gun.”
President Donald Trump declared Antifa to be a terrorist organization last year.
“Today’s charges and arrests reflect a broad federal effort to address organized, lawless behavior, which seeks to disrupt the execution of federal law, endanger law enforcement, and, importantly, endanger the very communities that these defendants falsely claim to be protecting,” U.S. Attorney Daniel Roden said in a Tuesday press conference announcing the charges.

He emphasized that the defendants have not been arrested for speech — which is protected by the First Amendment — but for alleged criminal actions.
Homeland Security Investigations Special Agent in Charge Michael McCarthy echoed that sentiment.
“Peaceful protest is a protected right and a cornerstone of our democracy. We respect and defend that right,” he said. “However, there’s a clear line that cannot be crossed when protest turns into rioting, violence or criminal activity, it becomes unlawful and it will not be tolerated.”

“Working closely with the U.S. Attorney’s Office, our investigation uncovered extensive planning, material support and coordinated attacks against federal personnel and facilities. Our teams have worked tirelessly conducting surveillance, reviewing camera footage, and analyzing large volumes of information to identify those responsible.”
