Federal agents shot and killed a 26-year-old Colombian man — identified as Joan Sebastian Guerrero by a neighbor — during an immigration enforcement operation in Maine on Monday morning, the second such incident in the US in less than a week, coming only days after an agent fatally shot Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, a Mexican immigrant, during a traffic stop in Texas.

Fallout from the two incidents – unfolding nearly 2,000 miles apart – also reached Minneapolis, where calls for accountability among Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents have been reignited following the January shooting deaths of Renee Good and Alex Pretti in Minneapolis.

From Biddeford, Maine, to Houston, Texas, here’s what you need to know:

Fatal ICE shooting: The Biddeford community is mourning a young father, husband and neighbor after Guerrero was shot by an ICE agent this morning. Local officials have demanded a full and impartial investigation, while protesters took to Biddeford’s streets.
Feds hours-long silence: The Department of Homeland Security broke its nearly 12 hours of silence following the shooting, saying in a markedly vague statement that the ICE officer fired his weapon “fearing for public safety,” but didn’t share details on why the officer believed the man was a public safety risk.
Conflicting accounts: The shooting victim was “NOT the target of the warrant,” Sen. Angus King’s office said after the lawmaker again spoke with DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin. King said earlier, citing a separate conversation with Mullin, that the man was the target of a warrant.

Surveillance Footage: Video surveillance obtained by The Associated Press appears to show the car carrying a 26-year-old Colombian man who was fatally shot by ICE on Monday as it’s being stopped. Once the vehicle has been stopped, agents can be seen pulling the body from the vehicle and laying it on the ground.

Nearly two dozen subpoenas: Harris County District Attorney Sean Teare said his office has issued nearly 20 subpoenas for evidence and witness testimony as it launches its own investigation into the killing of Salgado Araujo, noting the federal government is not sharing evidence with investigators.
Shot from the passenger side: Salgado Araujo’s brother, Victor, who was with him when an ICE agent shot and killed him, told Texas immigration attorney Ruby Powers that during the incident, an unidentified individual walked up to the passenger side of the van where Victor was sitting with the window open. The individual said, “Stop,” and immediately fired a weapon, hitting Salgado Araujo.
International condemnation: The Senate of the Republic of Mexico on Monday condemned incidents related to the actions of US immigration authorities involving the deaths of 17 Mexican citizens during President Donald Trump’s second term, calling for thorough investigations into each incident.
