The Department of Homeland Security updated its account of a December 24 Glen Burnie, Maryland, ICE shooting after Anne Arundel County police contradicted DHS details. Initially DHS said ICE officers defensively fired at a van carrying two undocumented immigrants after it rammed ICE vehicles and tried to run officers over; the driver Sousa-Martins was shot and the passenger injured when the van crashed. DHS later said the injured man was not in the van but a passenger in an ICE vehicle that was rammed. Police then clarified that one ICE detainee was injured in an ICE vehicle and the other was struck by gunfire while in a separate vehicle. Sousa-Martins is in ICE custody; Serrano-Esquivel, treated for whiplash, is also in ICE custody. The incident is under investigation and comes amid broader scrutiny of DHS communications about immigration enforcement.
