Joan Sebastian Guerrero, originally from Colombia, was 26 years old and the father of a 3-year-old daughter. He was reportedly authorized to work in the United States, had been issued a Social Security number and was not the target of any warrant. The Department of Homeland Security has defended the shooting, saying that ICE fired on Guerrero in his car out of fear for "public safety." Witnesses say they say they saw agents dragging Guerrero from the car after the shooting as he told them that he had been trying to "stop."
