Man shot by ICE, detained in Texas with a bullet in his back is back in the hospital, attorney says

· KRGV (NBC 5)

Wilber Rafael Garces Perez, a Venezuelan man shot by an ICE officer in Austin, Texas, is back in the hospital with a bullet still in his back. His attorney, Kate Lincoln-Goldfinch, reported that Perez, 28, was taken to a federal detention center in Pearsall after being treated for his injuries. A federal judge has ordered him to appear in court next week due to a lawsuit aimed at halting his removal from the U.S. Protests have erupted in Austin over the incident, which occurred during a DoorDash delivery. Perez reported severe pain and lack of sensation in his arm, and has been denied pain medication while in custody.
