Federal Agents Shoot Two in Portland After Controversial ICE Killing

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers shot two people during a traffic stop in Portland, Oregon. Federal officials have now identified the injured individuals. The incident occurred just one day after an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent killed a woman in Minneapolis during a separate operation. That earlier shooting was part of a federal immigration enforcement action. These back-to-back shootings by federal agents have sparked strong criticism from local leaders in Portland. City officials angrily denounced the use of force. The condition of the two people shot in Portland is currently unknown. The CBP, which patrols areas within 100 miles of any U.S. border, has not released details about the reason for the traffic stop.
