Man killed by ICE in Maine was not target of warrant, Sen. Angus King says

Published Updated



The Colombian man who was fatally shot by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers in Biddeford, Maine, was not the target of the warrant that officers were attempting to serve, according to Sen. Angus King (I-ME).

The shooting comes less than a week after another fatal ICE officer-involved shooting in Houston in which the victim was not the target of the warrant. In that case, officers killed Salgado Araujo, a Mexican national who had lived in the United States for more than 35 years.
