Victim of Dallas ICE shooting released from hospital, in custody again
A victim wounded in the shooting at a Dallas ICE facility last month has been released from the hospital and is in custody again, ICE officials said in a statement.
Venezuelan national Jose Andres Bordonez-Molina, 33, was taken into ICE custody on the day of the shooting following his release from the Hurst City Jail, according to the statement.
Bordonez-Molina was being held in Hurst for a traffic offense, officials said.
After he was shot, ICE officers administered first aid until emergency medical services arrived to take him to Parkland Hospital, according to the statement.
Bordonez-Molina is being held at the Prairieland Detention Center in Alvarado, according to the Dallas Morning News.
The Prairieland center was itself the target of an anti-ICE attack in July.
“The terrible losses and injuries that resulted from this attack are directly caused by the senseless and misleading political rhetoric that is being thrown around by politicians and activists,” ICE officials said. “This violence must stop.”
