Harris County District Attorney’s office says a substance investigators found in a van driven by a man fatally shot by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) earlier this month is not an illegal narcotic. In a statement reported Friday, the DA’s office says it can confirm the material tested negative for narcotics or illicit drugs. The finding follows the discovery of the substance at the scene involving Lorenzo Salgado Araujo in Houston and reports that investigators had examined an item in his vehicle after the fatal shooting by immigration agents. The DA’s office’s determination does not address other aspects of the incident, including what prompted the encounter or whether any other evidence was recovered. The case continues to be handled through the criminal justice process, with authorities still able to pursue other investigative avenues depending on the outcomes of related reviews and examinations.
