Miguel Parra Stopped by ICE on His Way to Work

Miguel Parra, 48, was stopped Saturday morning on his way to work by ICE agents traveling in an unmarked black truck, according to César Espinosa, executive director of FIEL.

Parra stopped his vehicle, got out, and began running. In video from a nearby security camera released by local media, the ICE truck is seen following him, turning around, and striking him from behind.

After the incident, Parra was taken to a hospital in the Katy area, where he is recovering from fractures in both legs and injuries to his hip and one ankle, Espinosa reported at the press conference.

Doctors have already performed surgery on him, and he has a second procedure pending to treat the ankle injury.

Harris County District Attorney Sean Teare opened an independent investigation into the incident and said yesterday that he is prepared to file criminal charges against the federal agent involved, who, in his opinion, acted intentionally.

«It was an intentional hit, and in that case, it constitutes aggravated assault with a deadly weapon in Texas,» Teare told NBC News. He added that the federal government is not cooperating with the investigation.

Two other migrants who had been detained by agents that same day were also traveling in the truck that struck Parra. Both witnessed «everything that happened» and, after the incident, were transferred to an immigration detention center on the outskirts of Houston, according to FIEL and Kim Bruno, Parra’s lawyer and also the lawyer for Luis Enriquez, one of the witnesses.

This is the third incident involving violence by ICE agents against migrants in Texas since July and the second in Houston.

In September, an ICE agent shot and injured Wilber Garcés, a Venezuelan migrant, in Austin. In July, another agent from the same agency shot and killed Lorenzo Salgado, a Mexican migrant, in Houston.
