New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani condemned the shooting of a man with a 5-year-old child in his car by ICE agents. The incident, which occurred in Marble Hill, New York, has sparked calls for an end to federal enforcement actions in the city.
ICE agents shot and wounded a Dominican man during an arrest in Manhattan, according to officials. The man, described as a criminal illegal alien with a prior grand larceny conviction, was in his car with a child when officers opened fire. The shooting happened after the man accelerated his vehicle toward ICE agents.
Mayor Mamdani called for the removal of ICE from New York, citing the incident as an example of the dangers of the Trump administration's immigration crackdown. ICE officials defended the shooting, claiming they did not know the child was in the car at the time of the incident.
