ICE agent shoots, wounds man in Austin

Austin Mayor Kirk Preston said in a news conference Sunday that the city was short on details about what led to the shooting or the identities of the officer or victim involved. The Austin Police Department wasn’t involved in the incident, Chief Lisa Davis said.

“A person being shot on the streets of Austin by someone purporting to be law enforcement, particularly when it’s ICE, is something that that causes me to be unhappy and angry about it,” Preston said. “I’m not surprised at all.”

The mayor called for local officials and the city police department to be included in “any investigation of this event” to offer “clear third-party eyes.”
