What new video reveals about Austin's ICE shooting
New video and court action are reshaping the ICE shooting case in Austin. DHS and Austin police are offering sharply different accounts of what happened. The Department of Homeland Security said Wilber Garcés Pérez was in the United States without lawful status and defended ICE's actions. Attorney Kate Lincoln-Goldfinch said he entered through the CBP One app in 2024 and had authorization to work. Austin police released three videos Tuesday, including footage from an off-duty detective and the first responding officer. Police said the videos show a traffic stop about 14 minutes before the shooting, but key questions remain. A federal judge temporarily blocked Garcés Pérez's deportation while his immigration case continues. The investigations by Austin police, the Texas Rangers, Homeland Security Investigations and the FBI are ongoing.
