休斯顿 — 周六,两名戴着手铐的男子坐在美国移民与海关执法局(ICE)车辆的后座时,该车辆撞伤了正在逃跑的米格尔·帕拉·埃尔南德斯。倡导者们正努力确保这两名男子 — 现在可能成为证人 — 不被驱逐出境。周三的新闻发布会上,家人、倡导者和律师确认其中一名男子为路易斯·德尔菲恩·恩里克斯,48岁。他的妹妹尼迪亚·德尔菲恩表示,她的哥哥在车辆撞到帕拉时正被铐在ICE车辆的后座,并补充说,他当时正前往与员工共进早餐的路上时被ICE逮捕。
HOUSTON — Two handcuffed men were in the backseat of an ICE vehicle Saturday when it struck and injured Miguel Parra Hernandez as he fled on foot in Houston. Advocates are fighting to make sure the men — now potential witnesses — are not deported. At a news conference Wednesday, family members, advocates and attorneys identified one of the men as Luis Delfín Enríquez, 48. Nidia Delfín, Delfín’s sister, said her brother was handcuffed in the backseat of the ICE vehicle when it hit Parra, adding that he was on his way to breakfast with employees when he was apprehended by ICE.
她说,德尔菲恩不是罪犯,他没有逮捕令,并且正在办理绿卡,这意味着他正在成为合法永久居民的道路上。“他拥有一家小公司。他雇佣社区里的人。他是个好人,”她说,并补充说他目击了“这一可怕的事件”。她说,她、她的父母和她的哥哥虽然害怕,但他们站出来发声,是为了让帕拉“能得到正义”。她呼吁社区中其他目击该事件的人 — 她说她在社交媒体上看到了视频 — 也这样做,并分享他们掌握的信息。
She said that Delfín is not a criminal, that he has no arrest warrants and that he was in the process of getting his green card, which means he was on the path to being a legal permanent resident. “He owns his own small company. He hires people from the community. He is a good man,” she said, adding that he witnessed “this horrific incident.”She said that she, her parents and her brother are afraid but that they are speaking up so Parra “can get justice.”She pleaded with others in the community who witnessed the incident — she said she has seen videos on social media — to do the same and share the information they have.
“对他所做的一切是不可以的,”她说,指的是帕拉。“这不是我们对待其他人类的方式。”休斯顿FIEL组织(一个移民民权组织)的代表帕拉家庭的塞萨尔·埃斯皮诺萨表示,被关在ICE车辆中的男子“目击了所发生的一切”,包括“米格尔[帕拉]被车辆碾过的那一刻”。哈里斯县地方检察官肖恩·蒂尔周二告诉NBC新闻,他办公室收集的视频显示,帕拉是被故意撞击的。
“What was done to him is not OK,” she said, referring to Parra. “It’s not how we’re supposed to treat other human beings.”Cesar Espinosa of FIEL Houston, an immigrant civil rights organization who is representing Parra’s family, said the men held in the ICE vehicle “witnessed everything that happened,” including “the moment when Mr. Miguel [Parra] was run over.”Harris County District Attorney Sean Teare told NBC News on Tuesday that videos gathered by his office suggest that Parra was struck intentionally.
蒂尔说,他的办公室正在寻求采访目击者,以调查此案。“这是车辆故意撞击并碾过该人物,在这种情况下,这在得克萨斯州构成使用致命武器的加重袭击,”他说。
Teare said his office is seeking to interview the witnesses as it investigates the case. “This was an intentional striking and running over of the person by the vehicle, and in that case, that is an aggravated assault with a deadly weapon in Texas,” he said.
美国国土安全部高级官员周二对NBC新闻表示,现场的ICE官员佩戴了执法记录仪,该机构正在审查录像以进行内部调查。ICE曾表示,指控该机构故意撞击帕拉的说法是“鲁莽且虚假的”。埃斯皮诺萨表示,如果有执法记录仪的录像,应立即移交给地方检察官办公室。一份政府监督机构周三发布的报告发现,海关与边境保护局和ICE尚未制定具体的操作指南,以说明其人员应如何使用执法记录仪。
A senior Department of Homeland Security official told NBC News on Tuesday that ICE officers on the scene were wearing body cameras and that the agency is reviewing video for an internal investigation. ICE has said allegations that the agency intentionally struck Parra are “RECKLESS and FALSE.”Espinosa said that if there is video from body cameras, it should be turned over to the district attorney’s office immediately. A government watchdog report released Wednesday found that Customs and Border Protection and ICE have not developed specific operational guidance to explain how their personnel should use body cameras.
报告称,若没有该指南,“CBP和ICE人员将无法按照政策要求使用摄像头”。政府问责办公室在其报告中表示。特朗普政府两周前发布了指南,规定车辆停靠现场的官员必须佩戴并启动执法记录仪。国土安全部和ICE未就执法记录仪录像的发布、是否计划驱逐事件目击者以及驾驶撞击帕拉车辆的ICE官员的现状立即作出回应。
Without that guidance, “CBP and ICE personnel will fail to use the cameras as required under policy,” the Government Accountability Office said in its report. The Trump administration issued guidance two weeks ago that dictated that officers on the scenes of vehicle stops must wear and activate their body cameras. DHS and ICE did not immediately respond to questions about the release of the bodycam video, whether they planned to deport witnesses to the incident and the status of the ICE officer who drove the vehicle that hit Parra.
NBC附属电台KPRC(休斯顿)获得的事件安防录像显示,一辆白色卡车正沿繁忙道路逆向行驶。录像显示,帕拉和另一名男子从白色卡车上下来并奔跑。与此同时,录像显示,另一辆车越过黄色分隔带,朝帕拉的方向驶去。录像随后显示,该车辆(未有标识)向左转向帕拉的路径,位于购物中心前的一辆停靠卡车之前。
Security video of the incident obtained by NBC affiliate KPRC of Houston shows a white truck headed in the opposite direction of traffic on a busy roadway. Parra and another man exit the white truck and run, the video shows. At about the same time, the video shows, another vehicle jumps a yellow median and heads in Parra’s direction. The video then shows the vehicle, which is not marked, swerving left toward Parra’s path, in front of a truck stopped in a shopping center.
当停靠的卡车离开后,录像显示,一名男子可以看到躺在ICE车辆后方的路面上。特尔(民主党人)对NBC新闻表示,此次调查可能导致使用致命武器加重攻击罪的指控。埃斯皮诺萨在新闻发布会上表示,帕拉目前在医院感到不安全。
When the parked truck leaves, a man can be seen lying on the pavement behind the ICE vehicle, the video shows. Teare, a Democrat, told NBC News the investigation could lead to charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. Espinosa said at the news conference that Parra does not feel safe at the hospital.
Espinosa说,当时他被撞时在场的ICE官员“就是在医院24小时盯着他的那支团队”。他不知道驾驶车辆的人是否在看守帕拉的行列之中。ICE没有立即确认周六事件中涉事的ICE官员是否正在医院陪同帕拉。Espinosa、帕拉的律师Kim Bruno以及帕拉的家人在新闻发布会上要求ICE将帕拉留在医院接受他多处伤势的治疗。Espinosa说:“如果得不到适当的医疗护理,他可能会出现感染和其他问题,这些问题可能危及生命,所以我们需要他得到尽可能好的医疗护理。”
The ICE officers who were there when he was struck “are the same crew that are watching him 24/7” at the hospital, Espinosa said. He did not know whether the driver of the vehicle was among those guarding Parra. ICE did not immediately confirm whether the ICE officers involved in Saturday’s incident are with Parra at the hospital. Espinosa, Parra’s attorney Kim Bruno and Parra’s family demanded at the news conference that ICE keep Parra at the hospital where he is being treated for his multiple injuries. Without the proper medical care, he could end up with infections and other problems that could be life-threatening, “so we need him to get the best medical care possible,” Espinosa said.
Espinosa和Bruno表示,帕拉仍未被ICE处理,而ICE曾说过他非法滞留在美国。Bruno和Espinosa证实帕拉是无证人士,并说他们无法提供他是否在寻求其他身份的进一步信息。Espinosa和Bruno说,帕拉从事抹灰工作,已经在美国生活了34年,他是14岁来的。新闻发布会上,与帕拉同乘卡车并逃跑的司机被确认为“奥马尔”。
Espinosa and Bruno said Parra still has not been processed by ICE, which has said that he is in the country illegally. Bruno and Espinosa confirmed that Parra was undocumented and said they could not provide further information about whether he was seeking other status. Parra, who works applying stucco, has been in the country 34 years, having arrived at age 14, Espinosa and Bruno said. The man who was driving the truck with Parra and also ran away was identified at the news conference as “Omar.”
Espinosa说,奥马尔没有犯罪记录,也没有任何未决的移民通缉令。根据Espinosa的说法,在新闻发布会上,倡导者们批评ICE在移民被铐在车内的情况下追捕帕拉,危及每个人。曾担任地方检察官车辆犯罪部门主管多年的Teare也批评了ICE的策略。他在周二的一次采访中表示:“这个机构和这些特工在我国街道上的行为对这些社区的每个人都极其危险。”ICE没有立即回应有关其在运输先前逮捕的移民时进行移民拦截的指控。
He does not have a criminal record or any open immigration warrants, Espinosa said. At the news conference, advocates criticized ICE for pursuing Parra with the immigrants handcuffed in their car, endangering everyone, according to Espinosa. Teare, who served several years as the chief of the district attorney’s vehicular crimes division, also criticized ICE’s tactics. “The behavior of this agency and these agents on our streets is so dangerous to everyone that lives in these communities,” he said in an interview Tuesday. ICE did not immediately respond to allegations that it was conducting an immigration stop while it was transporting immigrants it had previously apprehended.
ICE 在声明中表示,他们正在追捕一名被认定为何塞·门多萨·塞万特斯(Jose Mendoza Cervantes)的男子,此人非法居留在美国,并犯有多起罪行。ICE 表示,帕拉不是他们的目标。埃斯皮诺萨在新闻发布会上多次举起门多萨的照片,并表示没有人,包括帕拉,认出他或知道他是谁。他还展示了与帕拉同车逃离前在车上的奥马尔(Omar)的照片,以证明那不是门多萨。“如果他[门多萨]确实存在,他必须被拘留,并且必须进行适当的彻底调查,以便对他进行审查,”埃斯皮诺萨说。
ICE has said in statements that it was pursuing a man it identified as Jose Mendoza Cervantes, who was in the country illegally and had committed several crimes. It has said Parra was not its target. Espinosa repeatedly held up a photo of Mendoza at the news conference and said no one, including Parra, recognized him or knew who he was. He also showed a photo of Omar, the man who was with Parra in the car before they fled, to show it was not Mendoza. “If he [Mendoza] does exist, he must be taken into custody, and a proper thorough investigation must be done so that he may be looked at,” Espinosa said.
