New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani likened a plainclothes Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer to a "mass shooter" after an ICE operation shooting in New York City last week. During an interview, Mamdani criticized the incident for highlighting why law enforcement should wear identifiable uniforms, arguing that bystanders were confused by the appearance of the officer involved. In response, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin defended the action, stating that the suspect had a criminal history and was aware of his surroundings when confronted by ICE officers. Mullin also accused Mamdani of inciting violence against ICE with his statements.

Story summary
On Thursday around 4 p.m., ICE agents shot a person during an enforcement operation in Marble Hill, Bronx, New York City, leading to hospitalization of the victim who is conscious and receiving medical attention.

Multiple sources indicated that ICE was attempting an arrest when another individual in a car was shot, with a child present but unharmed. New York Governor Kathy Hochul called for transparency about the incident's circumstances, stressing the need to know why and how it happened.
