· KRGV (NBC 5)
Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, a Mexican immigrant shot by an ICE agent in Houston, was not the target of the operation, according to U.S. Rep. Sylvia Garcia. Salgado Araujo, a homebuilder with no criminal record, was close to obtaining legal status when he was killed. ICE claimed he rammed their vehicle, prompting an agent to fire in self-defense. The incident has raised concerns about accountability, especially as ICE agents were not wearing body cameras. The Harris County District Attorney's office is investigating, and LULAC has offered a reward for witness information. Three men were detained during the incident.
