""The one thing he was adamant about was that he was fired on before he moved the vehicle. He was very clear on this point, that he moved backwards because he was trying to get away because he was shot at.""
""It's not that his movement of the vehicle triggered the shooting but quite the other way around. He fled in a panic because he was fired on.""
""Officers are not being given good rules of engagement and good training on how to keep themselves and others safe," he said, citing other controversial shootings involving federal immigration agents."
Carlos Iván Mendoza Hernández was shot by ICE agents in Northern California during a targeted immigration operation. His attorney, Patrick Kolasinski, stated that Hernández insisted he was fired upon before moving his vehicle. Kolasinski emphasized that Hernández's actions were a response to being shot at, not the cause of the shooting. Hernández sustained multiple gunshot wounds and is undergoing surgeries. The incident is under investigation by the FBI, and concerns have been raised about the training and rules of engagement for federal immigration agents.
