MAINE, USA: Hundreds of people protested in Maine on Tuesday over the killing of a Colombian man by Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer, after federal officials appeared to shift their narrative about the deadly encounter. The Department of Homeland Security said an ICE officer, “fearing for public safety,” shot and killed the man Monday in Biddeford while officers were watching the home of someone they believed was in the US illegally and had a final order of removal from the country.

DHS said an ICE agent fired his weapon at the man, an illegal immigrant with a final order of removal, after he attempted to flee.

The reported shooting comes days after ICE allegedly shot a man in Houston during a traffic stop.

One person was killed in a shooting involving Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers in Maine, state officials said.
