Mexican Migrant Killed by US Officials

A Mexican migrant was shot dead by U.S. immigration agents in Houston, Texas. According to the Department of Homeland Security, the man, who was reportedly living illegally in the United States, resisted instructions from officers and collided with their vehicle before attempting to strike an agent with his car. The officer fired in self-defense, resulting in the man's death at the hospital. The department has launched internal investigations into the shooting, while the FBI is also looking into the attack on a federal officer. A civil rights group expressed doubts about the official account and called for an independent investigation. The victim’s son shared on Facebook that his father had been working on a construction site and had lived in the U.S. for nearly 35 years. This incident follows previous cases where U.S. agents were involved in shootings of civilians, including the January deaths of Renée Good and Alex Pretti, which sparked nationwide outrage.
