A federal immigration officer wanted in the shooting of a Venezuelan man during the Trump administration’s Minnesota crackdown was arrested Friday in Texas, authorities said.

Christian Castro, of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, was taken into custody 11 days after Minneapolis prosecutors charged him with assault and falsely reporting a crime in the Jan. 14 nonfatal shooting of Julio Cesar Sosa-Celis.

Hennepin County, Minnesota prosecutors said the state’s Bureau of Criminal Apprehension located Castro, 52, in Texas, and the Texas Rangers said they assisted in the arrest in Cameron County, which borders Mexico in the southernmost part of the state.

    Excited for this guy to get absolutely zero punishment… I’m genuinely shocked there’s even one case of this, but because it is the one case that I’ve heard of I’m sure they are only doing it so they have an example to hold up for their dog and pony bullshit. I want to see that fucker that shot Renee in the face arrested and dragged through the street

      Minnesota prosecutors These are state charges, not federal, so Trump has no power to pardon this one, only the MN governor could.

    We need a golden net pin, statue, thingy to commemorate catching these subhumans, like all the golden gifts they’ve been giving each other for committing their atrocities.
