Man shot and killed by ICE in Maine was not the target of warrant, Sen. Angus King says
The officer has been placed on leave as the FBI leads a probe into the shooting, which officials say followed a vehicle pursuit.
- On Monday, July 13, 2026, a federal immigration officer fatally shot a motorist in Biddeford, Maine, marking the second such incident in a week involving U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents.
- Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin told Sen. Angus King that the officer opened fire after the man attempted to use his vehicle as a weapon while being pursued for deportation.
- Witnessing from a third-floor window, Daniel Boucher reported hearing "pop, pop, pop" and saw a small car "turned 90 degrees to the curb" with an SUV behind it.
- Monday's killing marks the ninth death from an encounter with federal immigration officials since President Donald Trump returned to office 18 months ago, including the July 7 fatal shooting of Salgado Araujo.
- ICE arrested 546 people in Maine between the start of Trump's second term and March 11, 2026, with about 45% of those arrested having criminal backgrounds, according to analyzed data.
