ICE Agent Arrested in Texas After Shooting Venezuelan Man in Minneapolis
Christian Castro, an ICE agent charged with assault and false reporting in the January shooting of a Venezuelan man during immigration enforcement, was arrested in Texas.

An Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent wanted on assault charges was arrested Friday morning in Texas, eleven days after prosecutors filed charges against him for shooting a Venezuelan man in Minneapolis.
Christian Castro was taken into custody on charges of assault and falsely reporting a crime in connection with the January 14 shooting of Julio Cesar Sosa-Celis during an attempted immigration arrest in north Minneapolis. The shooting was non-fatal, with Sosa-Celis reportedly shot in the leg.
The incident occurred during immigration enforcement operations in Minnesota. Video evidence later emerged that contradicted Castro's initial account of the shooting, leading to the additional charge of falsely reporting a crime, according to the Hennepin County Attorney's Office.
Castro had been wanted since Minneapolis prosecutors filed the charges earlier this month. The arrest brings to a close an 11-day search for the federal agent, who was apprehended without incident in Texas.
The case highlights tensions surrounding immigration enforcement operations and the use of force by federal agents. The charges against Castro represent a rare prosecution of a federal immigration officer in connection with a shooting during enforcement activities.
