FBI Declines Criminal Civil Rights Investigation Into Fatal ICE Shooting in Biddeford, Maine
Just the facts
The investigation into the shooting is being led jointly by the Department of Homeland Security Office of Inspector General and the Maine Attorney General's Office. Department of Homeland Security officials stated the officer fired his weapon because he feared for public safety when Guerrero allegedly attempted to flee in his vehicle, which sustained four bullet holes in the driver's side windshield. Surveillance video from the scene captured Guerrero being removed from the car while saying he tried to stop, and law enforcement sources confirmed ICE officers were not wearing body cameras during the incident. Following public scrutiny, ICE instituted a requirement that at least one activated body camera be present during vehicle enforcement stops.
