Minnesota County Charges ICE Officer in Nonfatal Shooting During Trump's Immigration Crackdown
A Minnesota county prosecutor has charged Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer Christian Castro with four counts of second-degree assault and one count of falsely reporting a crime. The charges stem from a January 14 incident where Castro allegedly shot Julio Cesar Sosa-Celis, a Venezuelan man, during the Trump administration's immigration crackdown. The shooting occurred after Castro and another officer pursued a different individual to a Minneapolis apartment duplex. Sosa-Celis, who was legally in the U.S., was shot in the thigh through a home's front door. The federal government initially accused Sosa-Celis and another man of assaulting an officer, but those charges were dismissed. The case has sparked tension between state and federal authorities over jurisdiction and accountability for federal officers' actions.
