Juez federal niega fianza a venezolano herido por agente de ICE en Austin

Un juez federal negó la fianza a Wilber Rafael Garces Pérez, un venezolano de 28 años detenido tras ser herido por un agente de ICE durante una parada de tráfico en Austin, manteniéndolo bajo custodia federal, según un informe de kut. org del 30 de septiembre. El tiroteo ocurrió el 20 de septiembre cuando el agente de ICE, que no llevaba la cámara corporal asignada, disparó al torso del hombre, dejando una bala cerca de la columna vertebral; el hecho provocó protestas y demandas de una investigación independiente, informó The Guardian.

Posteriormente, los fiscales presentaron cargos contra Garces Pérez por asalto, resistencia e impedimento a un oficial federal, según CBS News. Legisladores, incluido el representante Greg Casar, advirtieron que el detenido necesita cirugía y no recibe la atención médica adecuada, según NBC News. Con anterioridad, un juez federal había emitido una orden temporal que suspendía su deportación, informó la BBC.
