Developing Story: ICE Agent Shoots Immigrant and U.S. Marshal
I’ll keep this short, but an ICE agent shot an immigrant in Los Angeles, as well as a U.S. marshal (some reports are saying that there were remnants of the bullets that ricocheted off something to injure the marshal).
The details of what happened are unclear.
But anything coming from ICE is largely unreliable, as they are claiming the immigrant “weaponized” his car, an assertion they have made in the past that has turned out to be false.
Stay tuned for more information here.
I got interested why ICE was doing traffic stops. They are calling it a "targeted traffic stop" which means law enforcement already suspected driver of committing a crime. No word as to what crime. They claim they had an administrative arrest warrant and were following him after he left home. Apparently did not try to arrest him AS he was leaving home. No claim that they produced it before bashing in his window and "boxing him in." No word whether the govt vehicles were marked as such. He drove backward and forward after being boxed. In that motion he hit the fed vehicles. That is being called "assault with a deadly weapon."
Better be careful I guess if you hit a neighbor's car while trying to park. You could get sued for assault. Just THINK of all the fender benders at are sudden felonies.
If he was an overstay, rather than a "cross border illegally" guy, that is not a crime. He's apparently been here for some time and was active in the community. He as a "citizen journalist" had been reporting a lot on ICE activities on TikTok.
Ok just searched and saw it occurred around 9 this morning in South LA.
