A U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent has been charged in the shooting and wounding of a Venezuelan man in Minnesota earlier this year.
The Hennepin County Attorney’s Office announced Monday that it was filing charges against 52-year-old ICE agent Christian Castro in connection with the January shooting of Julio Sosa-Celis in Minneapolis.
The charges against Castro include four counts of second-degree assault and one count of falsely reporting a crime.
According to county officials, Castro fired his weapon through the front door of a home knowing that people, including Sosa-Celis, had just run inside. The bullet went through the door and struck Sosa-Celis in the leg.
“Castro fired his weapon through the front door of the home while standing alone in the front yard, under no physical threat or duress, and knowing there were people who had just run inside,” Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty said in the announcement.
