  "summary": "A 28-year-old man, identified by KahawaTungu as Oscar Belgal, was shot by a US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent while driving in the Bronx, New York City. According to KahawaTungu, his 5-year-old son was in the back seat at the time. The incident occurred while the ICE agent was attempting to arrest Belgal, who the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) described as a \"criminal illegal alien\" from the Dominican Republic.\n\nThe DHS reported that Belgal had a prior criminal conviction for grand larceny and multiple prior arrests for assault, robbery, possession of drugs, and weapons possession. He was arrested by police officers in New York in December 2023 and released a few days later. New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani described the shooting as \"unconscionable and incredibly serious\", stating that the ICE officer fired multiple rounds into the car with a child inside.\n\nBelgal was taken into custody and was alive at a local hospital. New York Governor Kathy Hochul reported that she had spoken to US President Donald Trump about the shooting and had expressed outrage on behalf of New Yorkers, also requesting the release of any body camera footage of the incident.",
