An Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent shot a man in New York City during an arrest. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) stated the individual was a "criminal illegal alien" from the Dominican Republic with a criminal record including grand larceny and multiple arrests for assault, robbery, drug, and weapons possession. The DHS also claimed the man was associated with the Trinitarios, a transnational criminal group. New York City's mayor expressed outrage over the incident. The article notes that President Trump has not yet commented. New York City, a Democratic stronghold, has policies that prevent its police officers from assisting with federal immigration enforcement.
