联邦检察官已对一名在奥斯汀被美国移民和海关执法局(ICE)人员开枪击中的委内瑞拉公民提出了袭警指控。

Federal prosecutors have charged a Velezuelan national shot by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Austin with assault charges.

根据一份宣誓书,威尔伯·拉斐尔·加尔塞斯·佩雷斯(Wilber Rafael Garces Perez)从一家餐厅离开时,被ICE执法人员认出其背负最终驱逐令,随后在一次交通拦截中被拦下。在拦截过程中,执法人员表明了自己是移民特工的身份,并要求加尔塞斯·佩雷斯交出他的得克萨斯州驾照,他照办了。在确认其身份后,执法人员要求加尔塞斯·佩雷斯下车。

According to an affidavit, Wilber Rafael Garces Perez was pulled over in a traffic stop by ICE officers after they identified him as having a final order of removal as he was leaving a restaurant. During the stop, the officers identified themselves as immigration agents and asked Garces Perez to hand them his Texas driver's license, which he provided. After confirming his identity, the officers asked Garces Perez to step out of the vehicle.

加尔塞斯·佩雷斯在向调查人员陈述时表示,他要求将车停在另一个地方,因为他知道自己会被拘留,并希望他的妻子能够把他的车开走。随后他承认,自己忽视了执法人员要求其下车的指令并逃离了现场。根据宣誓书,当他驾车驶离时,车身左侧反光镜撞击了一名执法人员的躯干。

In a statement to investigators, Garcez Perez asked to park in a different location because he knew he would be detained and wanted his wife to be able to pick up his car. He then admitted that he ignored the officers’ commands to exit the vehicle and fled the scene. As he pulled away, he struck one of the officers in the torso with his driver’s side mirror, according to the affidavit.

这起事件引发了一场在商业和住宅区进行的短暂的高速追捕。当时站在车外的一名ICE执法人员(在事件发生时未佩戴随身执法记录仪)称,加尔塞斯·佩雷斯试图开车撞他,并向该车的后车窗开了一枪,击中了加尔塞斯·佩雷斯的背部。在出院后,加尔塞斯·佩雷斯被送往一个移民拘留设施,子弹仍卡在他的背部。

The incident resulted in a brief high-speed chase through a commercial and residential area. One ICE officer standing outside the vehicle, who was not wearing a body camera during the incident, claimed Garces Perez attempted to hit him with his car and fired his pistol into the back window of the vehicle, striking Garces Perez in his back. After being released from the hospital, Garces Perez was sent to an immigration detention facility, with the bullet still lodged in his back.

国土安全部随后宣布将牵头对这起涉警枪击事件展开调查,并补充称,加尔塞斯·佩雷斯因在拜登政府期间非法入境而背负最终驱逐令。这起枪击事件在拥有大量拉美裔人口的奥斯汀引发了广泛的愤怒和抗议。在发生多起涉警枪击事件后,ICE一直饱受批评,其中包括今年早些时候在明尼苏达州发生的美国公民雷妮·古德(Renee Good)和亚历克斯·普雷蒂(Alex Pretti)被枪杀的两次致命事件。

The Department of Homeland Security later announced that it would be leading an investigation into the officer-involved shooting, adding that Garces Perez had a final order of removal for unlawfully entering the country under the Biden administration. The shooting prompted widespread outrage and protests in Austin, which has a large Hispanic population. ICE has come under fire following several officer-involved shootings, including the two fatal shootings of U.S. citizens Renee Good and Alex Pretti in Minnesota earlier this year.

近几个月来,7月份在休斯顿和缅因州发生的、涉及美国移民与海关执法局(ICE)官员的致命枪击事件,再次引发了人们对特朗普总统移民政策的强烈抗议。

In recent months, fatal shootings in Houston and Maine in July involving ICE officers also sparked outrage over President Trump’s immigration crackdown.
