A U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent shot a 28-year-old Dominican man in New York City while he was with a five-year-old child in the car. ICE claims they fired because their lives were at risk, stating that the man refused to exit his vehicle and used it as a weapon by accelerating towards officers. This incident has sparked outrage among New Yorkers, including Mayor Zohran Mamdani, who called for an end to all ICE enforcement activities in the city.

Story summary
On Thursday, at approximately 4 p.m., a shooting occurred involving Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents in the Marble Hill neighborhood of the Bronx, New York City. The injured individual was taken to a nearby hospital where they were conscious and receiving medical attention; their injuries are not considered life-threatening. ICE agents were reportedly attempting to take someone into custody when another person who was not the focus of the arrest was shot. Video footage from the scene showed multiple law enforcement personnel, including ICE agents restraining an individual on the ground. The shooting came days after local officials urged property owners to prevent federal immigration agents from using certain areas for enforcement activities. New York Governor Kathy Hochul called for a "full and transparent accounting" of the incident's circumstances.
