NPR: DHS says immigration agents appear to have lied about shooting in Minnesota
NPR reports that two federal immigration officers involved in the shooting of a Venezuelan immigrant in Minneapolis "appear to have lied about the details of the incident, a spokesperson for the Department of Homeland Security said . . . ."
The agents have been placed on administrative leave after "evidence . . . revealed that sworn testimony provided by two separate officers appears to have made untruthful statements," the spokesperson, Tricia McLaughlin, said. This is a rare acknowledgment of potential missteps by ICE officers.
