Biddeford police referred questions to ICE, while the city’s mayor did not immediately respond.The shooting prompted an immediate reaction from Maine Democrat and US Congressional Representative Chellie Pingree, who said she was on her way to Washington when she learned about the reports.“I am so deeply disturbed and angry,” Pingree said in a video posted to social media.She said there were urgent questions that needed answering, including whether the person who was shot had a criminal record, whether the incident began as a routine traffic stop, whether officers were wearing body cameras, and how the shooting unfolded.“But more than anything else, I want to know, ‘Why are you in Maine?’” Pingree said, adding that she was concerned the case could involve someone who was legally in the United States.
