Summary
Zohran Mamdani said he pressed Donald Trump for about two hours to release the immigrant wounded by an ICE agent in the Bronx, but the man was later moved out of the hospital by ICE.
DHS said agents were trying to arrest a wanted Dominican man around 4 p.m. when at least one agent fired seven rounds, hitting the 28-year-old in the neck; the FBI and HSI are investigating.
Jessica Tisch said a 5-year-old boy believed to be the man's son was inside the vehicle during the shooting but was not injured and is now with a family member.
Hundreds gathered outside NewYork-Presbyterian Allen Hospital chanting against ICE, and police made some arrests after shoving broke out and protesters threw water bottles.
The shooting quickly became a broader fight over New York's sanctuary policies, with DHS citing the man's prior arrests and Mamdani and Kathy Hochul urging Trump to halt ICE operations statewide.
