A shooting involving U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) results in one death in Biddeford, Maine, state House Speaker Ryan Fecteau says. Multiple outlets report that Fecteau confirmed the incident in a social media post, naming ICE as being involved and stating that the shooting occurred Monday morning in Biddeford. ABC News also reports that a federal immigration authorities statement says an ICE agent is involved in the shooting.
Additional reporting describes the circumstances as involving an exchange of gunfire in connection with a vehicle at an intersection, with at least one eyewitness claiming a driver tried to run over ICE agents before being shot dead. The driver’s identity is not reported in the sources provided. Other outlets note that specific details are still being confirmed, and that the incident comes days after a separate, earlier high-profile case in Texas involving a man killed by a U.S. agent during a traffic stop.
Authorities continue to verify facts as investigations are ongoing.
