Video of ICE shooting shakes family of undocumented worker
Ronaldo Salgado recounts the moment his father, Lorenzo Salgado Araujo—an undocumented immigrant and longtime construction worker—was shot by an ICE officer during a confrontation in the Houston area; a video circulated showing the aftermath, and the Department of Homeland Security said the officer fired in self-defense after Lorenzo refused to comply and allegedly weaponized his vehicle. Ronaldo disputes the account, saying his father would have complied if officers had identified themselves and criticizing the agency’s portrayal of him; the family is calling for a full, transparent investigation, noting Lorenzo’s years of hard work and his attempts to obtain legal status, while three others were detained and Lorenzo died at Ben Taub Hospital.
