Border Patrol agent shoots 2 people in Portland, day after ICE agent kills Minneapolis woman
U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents shot two Spanish-speaking individuals after a vehicle was allegedly weaponized; the FBI leads the investigation amid calls for calm and transparency.
- FBI Portland said an agent-involved shooting wounded two people at about 2:15 p.m. Thursday near the 10000 block of Main Street, and both were transported to a hospital.
- Customs and Border Protection said U.S. Border Patrol agents were conducting a targeted vehicle stop when the driver tried to run over officers, prompting a defensive shot, and the vehicle fled with two occupants.
- Officers located a man and a woman with apparent gunshot wounds, applied a tourniquet and summoned emergency medical personnel while Portland police officers secured both scenes.
- Unanswered questions remain about what led to the shooting or whether the individuals were armed, and it remains unclear if the agents involved have been placed on administrative duty.
- DHS then on Friday morning posted on X identifying Luis David Nico Moncada and Yorlenys Betzabeth Zambrano-Contreras as Tren de Aragua associates, while local leaders called for ICE/CBP operations to stop, comparing it to the Minneapolis ICE fatality.
