Noem Blames NYC Sanctuary City Policy for Border Patrol Officer Shooting

MANHATTAN, NEW YORK CITY, JUL 21 – Two illegal immigrants with extensive criminal records attempted to rob an off-duty Customs and Border Protection officer who was shot but managed to return fire, authorities said.

  • Late Saturday, two illegal immigrant suspects were taken into custody after shooting an off-duty CBP officer in Fort Washington Park, Manhattan, during an attempted robbery.
  • As of July 21, 2025, sanctuary city policies allowed the suspect's multiple arrests and April 2023 re-entry, with a policy blocking ICE detainers without convictions, according to Kristi Noem, Homeland Security Secretary.
  • The officer underwent surgery on Sunday and is now in stable condition, DHS officials said.
  • President Donald Trump wrote the officer demonstrated `enormous Skill and Courage`, Tom Homan vowed, `We're going to flood the zone`, and Kristi Noem blamed sanctuary city policies.
  • Recent funding boosts and rising agent risks underscore shifting sanctuary city enforcement, with the Department of Homeland Security warned ICE agents faced an 830% increase in assaults.
