An ICE agent has been charged with shooting through the door of a Minneapolis residence and injuring a man in January, the Hennepin County Attorney announced Monday.

Christian J. Castro, 52, reported that two men, including the one who was shot, attacked him with a shovel and broom, but “his account is contradicted by the video of the incident” from a city-owned camera at a nearby intersection in North Minneapolis.

These actions by Minnesota sanctuary politicians are unlawful and nothing more than a political stunt,” a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement spokesperson said in a statement Monday.

The shooting happened Jan. 14 in North Minneapolis while Operation Metro Surge was underway.

The criminal complaint alleges that Castro fired his service weapon at the front door of the home, knowing there were people who had just run inside that presented absolutely no threat to him or anyone else, Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty said at a Monday news conference.

The bullet punched through the front door and struck Mr. Sosa-Celis leg before traveling through a closet and lodging in the wall of a child’s bedroom, she continued. Mr. Castro was not under any physical threat when he fired his weapon, or even beforehand. He was not hit by a shovel or a broom. In fact, he was not hit at all.

Federal charges were dismissed against Sosa-Celis and the man whom ICE was following, Alfredo Alejandro Aljorna.

The men and women of ICE are entrusted with upholding the rule of law and are held to the highest standards of professionalism, integrity, and ethical conduct. Violations of this sacred sworn oath will not be tolerated,” the statement concluded.

ICE chased Mr. Aljorna when he was working for DoorDash, Moriarty said. “He was not the person that they thought he was.
