A man identified as 26-year-old Joan Sebastian Guerrero, a Colombian national authorized to work in the U.S., was shot and killed by ICE during a vehicle stop in Biddeford, Maine, as officers pursued a vehicle linked to a removal order; ICE says the driver fled and the officer fired after fearing for public safety, while authorities had not publicly released his identity as of Tuesday. Guerrero reportedly leaves behind a wife and a 3-year-old child, and Colombia's embassy is involved in the case; it remains unclear whether Guerrero was the warrant target, with investigators continuing the inquiry.
