An ICE agent shot a man in his car with a child present in the Bronx on Thursday, according to city officials and witnesses. The incident has raised concerns about federal enforcement actions in the city.
The shooting occurred around 4 p.m. in the Marble Hill neighborhood of the Bronx. Authorities confirmed the man, who is believed to be in his late 20s, was wounded and is receiving medical treatment. The child in the vehicle was not harmed, according to officials.
New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani condemned the incident, calling it an 'unconscionable and incredibly serious situation.' He has called President Donald Trump to demand an end to ICE enforcement actions in the city. The Department of Homeland Security confirmed the man had a criminal history involving grand larceny and multiple arrests for assault and weapons possession.
Mamdani said he would ask Trump to halt ICE enforcement in the city. The incident follows other high-profile shootings involving ICE agents this year, including one that resulted in a death in Minneapolis.
