The federal indictment against Christian Castro marked a rare instance of the Trump administration seeking to hold an immigration agent accountable for actions taken while on duty.
The gunman, who killed two people and wounded several others at an apartment building, died in an exchange of gunfire with the police, authorities said on Thursday.
The state had sought to have the agent extradited from Texas to answer charges in Minneapolis related to an on-duty shooting that wounded an immigrant.
The two states have waged an unusual court battle over the agent facing charges over a shooting in Minneapolis. The agent could be released from jail on Thursday.
