Texas DA: Van contents from fatal Houston ICE shooting were not drugs
TL;DR Summary
The Harris County District Attorney said substances found in Lorenzo Salgado Araujo’s van after a fatal ICE shooting in Houston tested negative for narcotics or illicit drugs. The FBI obtained a search warrant because small bags in the van appeared to contain meth, though the ACLU suggested they could be electrolyte mixes. Salgado Araujo’s family has been notified and the investigation remains pending, with Rep. Sylvia Garcia noting Salgado Araujo was not the intended target and urging independent, transparent inquiry.
