Summary
A Houston construction worker, Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, was fatally shot by an ICE officer while on his way to pick up his crew—just days after decades of building homes and raising three college-educated sons. The officer claimed self-defense after the van allegedly rammed an agency vehicle, but witnesses say Salgado was shot through a window with no immediate threat. A man who’d lived in the U.S. for over 30 years, he was close to legal status and feared unmarked cars. His family demands justice, calling this the latest in a series of deaths during Trump-era immigration enforcement—and asking for transparency, accountability, and an end to the fear that cost him his life.
