Two Texas congress members visited the detention center in Pearsall, Texas, intending to meet with Wilber Rafael Garcés Pérez, the 28-year-old Venezuelan who, according to authorities, was shot during an incident involving an ICE agent in Austin. Congress members Joaquín Castro and Greg Casar aim to learn firsthand about Garcés Pérez's health status and seek answers regarding the circumstances of the incident that occurred on Sunday while the migrant was working as a DoorDash delivery driver. According to his attorney, Kate Lincoln-Goldfinch, the bullet remains lodged near his spine, and following the shooting, he lost mobility on the left side of his body. She also reported that he was transferred back to a hospital on Monday after experiencing difficulty moving one of his arms, although he later returned to ICE custody.
