[The U.S. law enforcement officer suspected of shooting immigrants has been released and has been charged with multiple crimes] On August 28, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent Christian Castro, who shot a Venezuelan immigrant during a law enforcement operation in Minneapolis, has been released from a Texas prison. Castro was previously charged by Minnesota with four counts of second-degree assault and one count of making a false report. Castro is accused of shooting and wounding 24-year-old Venezuelan man Julio Sosa-Cellis during a law enforcement operation in Minneapolis on January 14 this year, and then falsely claiming that Sosa-Cellis and another man attacked an ICE officer with a broom handle and a snow shovel. Minnesota prosecutors charged Castro with assault and other crimes, and a judge in the state issued a nationwide arrest warrant against him in May. The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension and other law enforcement agencies arrested Castro on May 29. Since then, Castro has been imprisoned in Brownsville, a city in southern Texas adjacent to Mexico. (CCTV News)
