2 shot by U.S. immigration officer in stop in Portland
The death in Minneapolis earlier this week was followed yesterday by, as ABC News reports, "a shooting involving a federal agent in Portland, Oregon . . . . The Department of Homeland Security said the shooting occurred while Border Patrol agents were conducting a `targeted' stop on a vehicle carrying two people allegedly affiliated with the Tren de Aragua gang. The passenger was the target, DHS said.
`When agents identified themselves to the vehicle occupants, the driver weaponized his vehicle and attempted to run over the law enforcement agents,' DHS said in a statement."
