Grand Jury Indicts Man Shot by ICE After California Traffic Stop

A federal grand jury in California indicted Carlos Ivan Mendoza Hernandez on two counts of assault on a federal officer with a deadly weapon and one count of destruction of government property after an April traffic stop in which ICE agents fired at him as he allegedly tried to flee; he was hospitalized after being shot multiple times and later taken into FBI custody. While prosecutors described him as an undocumented immigrant potentially linked to a murder investigation in El Salvador, his attorney says there is no evidence he was a gang member. An arraignment is scheduled for Monday amid conflicting narratives and limited clarity from dashcam footage.
