ICE agent 'nearly crushed' during stop, DHS says
Published in News & Features
BOSTON -- An ICE agent was injured after being pinned by a suspect’s vehicle last week in Quincy, Massachusetts, according to a Department of Homeland Security spokesperson.
The incident occurred around 11 a.m. Friday on Bigelow St. during a “targeted arrest” of an illegal immigrant, the DHS said in a statement.
After stopping the suspect, ICE officers exited their vehicle to make the arrest, but according to the statement, the suspect, “in an attempt to evade arrest, weaponized his vehicle and nearly crushed a special agent.”
The agent was able to move out of the pathway of the vehicle, the spokesperson said, but the suspect still struck the door of the ICE vehicle, briefly pinning the officer.
The suspect fled and remains at-large, the statement said. DHS did not identify the suspect.
The agent involved went to the hospital with minor injuries.
