QatarAn immigration officer with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) fatally shot Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, a Mexican national, during a traffic stop in Houston, Texas.

ICE has faced criticism for its accounts of such events, with advocates demanding transparency and access to video evidence.
