Minnesota ICE agent involved in deadly shooting of woman had prior dragging incident

MINNEAPOLIS — The federal immigration agent who fatally shot a woman in her car this week was dragged about 100 yards by a different driver in Minnesota last year during an immigration operation, interviews and court records show.

The agent, described by a spokesperson as a 10-year veteran of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, was treated for a gash on his forearm that required 20 stitches after the dragging incident, for which the driver was convicted of assault last month.
