Shooting of Immigrant Worker Sparks Probe | Savannah News

A Houston construction worker with 35 years in the U.S. and no criminal record was fatally shot by an ICE agent while driving his crew to a job site — sparking national outrage and a state-led investigation. While DHS claims he rammed their vehicle and the agent acted in self-defense, three men in the van dispute that. Governor Abbott has launched a probe, and Salgado’s son thanks the public for rallying behind his family. His brother, detained after the shooting, has an attorney insisting the substance found in the van was a legal electrolyte mix — and urging tests to prove it, even as the FBI investigates possible meth. Federal officials say the probe is early-stage, but the use of deadly force remains the central, unanswerable question.
