Ooops.
The Minneapolis FBI on Friday apologized for saying that two homicide victims were members of gangs.
“Donald E. Oswald, Special Agent in Charge of the Minneapolis FBI office, today regrets to announce that the FBI made an error in a press release that was released yesterday regarding the arrest of fugitive Carlos Maurico Lizama, 29, of Baltimore, Maryland,” the FBI said in a press release.
“The press release stated that the two homicide victims were members of the 18th Street Gang. In fact, the two victims were not affiliated to any gang. The FBI apologizes for this mistake.”
