Man shot by ICE in Austin held with a bullet still in his back, attorney says
A Venezuelan man shot by an ICE officer in Austin during a traffic stop is being held in ICE custody with a bullet still lodged in his back, according to his attorney's spokesperson. DHS says he was in the U.S. illegally and had a final removal order, while his attorney says he was an asylum seeker with no criminal history and that the use of force was unwarranted. The shooting has drawn local and public scrutiny amid increased ICE enforcement.
