Twenty-one shot by ICE agents

Federal immigration agents have shot at least twenty-one people during Trump's second term, according to an ABC News count. Eight shootings were fatal, including three U.S. citizens.

Latest shooting in Austin

On Sunday, an ICE officer in Austin, Texas, shot Wilber Rafael Garces Perez, a Venezuelan man who was making deliveries for DoorDash. The shooting has raised questions about the Trump administration's deportation campaign.

Garces Perez's legal status disputed

DHS alleged Garces Perez was in the country illegally with a final removal order. His attorney, Kat Lincoln-Goldfinch, said he was in the country legally and had applied for asylum.

No body camera footage

Law enforcement sources told ABC News the ICE officer involved in shooting Garces Perez was not wearing a body-worn camera at the time of the incident.

Senator calls for accountability

Senator Richard Blumenthal, Democrat from Connecticut, said on Tuesday there was hope ICE would abandon physical brutality and that accountability would follow. He said that hope has vanished.

“There was hope that ICE would abandon the physical brutality and inhumanity of its tactics on the streets. There was hope that there would be accountability. That hope has been vanished.”

DHS vows to continue enforcement

The Department of Homeland Security said on Tuesday that ICE will not slow down or leave Austin. DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin pushed back on calls from Austin officials and House Democrats to withdraw from the city.

Mullin defends ICE operations

Mullin said sanctuary politicians put the needs of illegal aliens over American safety. He claimed ICE has arrested heinous criminals including terrorists, pedophiles, drug traffickers and murder fugitives in Texas.

“If sanctuary politicians like the Mayor of Austin had their priorities straight, they'd stop putting the needs of illegal aliens over the safety of the American people.”

Mother of fatal shooting victim testifies

Donna Ganger, mother of Renee Good, a thirty-seven-year-old Minneapolis woman fatally shot by ICE in January, testified at a congressional hearing on Tuesday. Good was a U.S. citizen. The ICE agent has not been charged.

“I voted for President Trump under the impression that these agents were here to protect the citizens of the United States, innocents like our family and the others here, against terrorists.”

Family seeks answers in Houston death

Lorenzo Salgado Jr. told lawmakers his fifty-two-year-old father was fatally shot by ICE in Houston in July. Two and a half months later, the family has received no answers and still lacks his belongings, wallet and phone.

“It's been two and a half months, and we still don't have my dad's belongings back. Aside from some change that he kept in his pocket, we don't have his wallet or his phone.”

Advocates call for investigation

Roman Palomares, president of the League of United Latin American Citizens, called for an independent investigation of Garces Perez's shooting. He noted that seventy-five days after Salgado's death in Houston, authorities still have not identified who fired the shot.

“Seventy-five days after Houston, Texas, we still do not know who pulled the trigger, and we're still counting.”

Community demands ICE withdrawal

Sulma Franco, director of the Grassroots Leadership Immigration Campaign, said community members are being terrorized by ICE. She called on the community to get involved and said the organization wants ICE out of Austin.

“Migration is not illegal. It's part of nature. And we're here to say today, we want ICE out of Austin.”
