ICE Agent Fires on Person in Bronx During Enforcement Operation

Overview

• ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations agents encountered a targeted individual in Marble Hill and shots were fired Thursday, leaving the person wounded and taken to a nearby hospital conscious with injuries not considered life‑threatening.
• Two federal agents were also treated at hospitals after the incident, and officials say one agent may have been hurt in a vehicle crash though the timing and cause remain unclear.
• The NYPD said it was not involved in the operation but deployed officers to control a growing crowd, secure the scene and help federal investigators process evidence.
• The New York Immigration Coalition demanded an immediate probe and public release of body‑camera video while Governor Kathy Hochul called for a full, transparent federal explanation; ICE and DHS had not issued a detailed public account at the time of reporting.
• A federal investigation led by Homeland Security investigators is active on scene as authorities collect evidence, a development that will likely increase scrutiny of ICE tactics given stepped‑up agency activity in New York since January 2025.
