The list of shootings appears to be a collection of incidents involving Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers who fired at and struck individuals. The incidents include:

1. Luis David Nino Moncada, Yorlenys Betzabeth Zambrano-Contreras, and an unnamed CBP agent were injured in Portland, Oregon on January 8, 2026.
2. A Border Patrol officer shot and killed a man in Minneapolis on January 7, 2026. The officer's identity was not disclosed.
3. Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old nurse, was killed by an ICE agent in Minneapolis on January 24, 2026.
4. Julio Cesar Sosa-Celis was injured while resisting arrest by an ICE officer in Minneapolis on January 14, 2026.

In each of the incidents, the officers claimed to have acted in self-defense or in response to a threat. However, some witnesses and videos appear to contradict these accounts.

It is worth noting that the list only includes cases where the individual was struck by gunfire or other forms of force used by an ICE or CBP officer. The exact number of incidents involving ICE and CBP officers who have fired at and struck individuals is not specified in the article.
 
can we talk about this? i just saw this news and it's crazy that these incidents are happening over and over again. like, what even is going on with all these shootings by immigration agents? 🤯 and to think some of these people were just trying to do their jobs or were caught in the wrong place at the wrong time... meanwhile, they're getting shot and injured. i don't get how this can keep happening and no one's holding anyone accountable. maybe we need a bigger conversation about police accountability (or immigration enforcement, idk) 🤔
 
🤔 man, these incidents got me thinking about the blurred lines between right and wrong when it comes to law enforcement... like, how do we even define what's a threat when someone's already got a gun pointed at 'em? 🤯 It's like, we want our officers to be able to protect themselves, but at what cost? And what about accountability? Who checks on these officers and makes sure they're not just using their power to harm innocent people? 🤔

And it's crazy that in some cases the witnesses are saying one thing, but the officers are claiming self-defense... like, how can we trust either side when the situation's already got all the variables mixed up? 💥 It's like, what even is a threat anymore? Is it just something someone says or does to set off these officers' instincts? 🤷‍♀️

I don't know, man... it feels like we're stuck in this never-ending cycle of fear and mistrust... and I'm not sure how to break free from it. 😕
 
Man, this is just really sad 🤕... I mean, can you imagine being stopped by law enforcement and then getting shot? It's like, what even is going on here? 😔 I think we need to ask ourselves why these things keep happening. Is it because people are genuinely afraid for their lives, or is it because there's something deeper at play? Maybe we're just not seeing the whole picture, you know? 🤔

I've been thinking, what would happen if everyone involved in these situations was given a chance to calm down and talk things out instead of resorting to force? Would we see a decrease in these kinds of incidents? I think so. It's all about de-escalation techniques and empathy, you know? 🤝 We need to teach our law enforcement officers that there are other ways to handle situations without resorting to violence.

And on a personal level, it makes me think... how can we be better allies to those who are already marginalized or vulnerable? How can we make sure they feel safe and respected by our society? 🤝 It's not just about laws and policies; it's about being human beings with heart. We need to put ourselves in others' shoes and try to understand their struggles. That's where the real change happens, my friends... 💖
 
OMG, these statistics are just getting scarier 🤕! I'm so worried about those poor people who got caught in the crossfire. It's like, one wrong move and they're getting shot or hit by a police officer? 🤦‍♀️ Can't we just talk things through instead of resorting to force? And what's going on with all these witness disputes? 🙄 I know officers have their jobs to do, but can't they find other ways to handle situations without hurting innocent people? 😔
 
When it comes to power, corruption and the fear of loss are the only things that matter... 💥🤯 Just kidding 😂. Seriously though, these incidents highlight the need for accountability and transparency when it comes to law enforcement agencies like ICE and CBP. We can't just ignore the fact that some individuals have been injured or killed by these officers, even if their actions were claimed to be in self-defense. The truth is, we need more than just "self-defense" excuses to make us feel safe. Transparency and oversight are key... 🕵️‍♀️💪
 
oh man... can't believe what's happening with these police actions 🤕 it's like they're trying to hurt innocent people left and right. i mean, we all know that there are some crazy situations out there, but does it have to escalate into a shooting? it breaks my heart when i see videos of people getting shot or hurt by law enforcement... the officers say they acted in self-defense, but sometimes these things just don't add up 🤔. what's going on here is not right, and we need to make sure that our law enforcement agencies are held accountable for their actions 💪
 
this is getting scary my son's friends' parents are all freaking out rn i get it, but can we also talk about how some of these witnesses & vids seem to show different stories than what the officers are saying 🤔👮‍♂️ like what if they didn't really act in self defense?! 🚨 my friend just had her kid take a course on de-escalation tactics and i'm so here for that now 💪 it's time we start thinking about how to keep our kids safe from these situations rather than just reacting with fear 👶
 
🤕 these incidents are really scary...ICE & CBP officers are supposed to be there for a reason, but some people feel threatened or scared by them...I don't know about the others, but in my opinion, if you're going to use force, you gotta have good reason to...and even then, it's not always clear cut like that...the videos and witnesses saying otherwise kinda make me wonder what's really goin' on... 🤔
 
Ugh, I just had the craziest thought - remember that time I tried to make homemade pizza dough from scratch? 🍕😂 I was like 12 years old and it was a total disaster! The dough just wouldn't come together right and ended up tasting like cardboard... anyway, what's with all these shootings by ICE/CBP officers? It's crazy how often we hear about these incidents now...
 
🤕 These recent shootings involving ICE & CBP officers are super concerning 🚨. It's crazy how often it seems like the ones doing the shooting end up as victims 💥, but really we're all the real victims here 🤷‍♀️. I mean, what's going on with our country's approach to immigration? Are these officers really that scared of themselves 😂 or is there more to it than just 'self-defense' 🤔?

And can we talk about how weird it is when witnesses contradict the officer's story 📺? I'm not buying the whole "acting in self-defense" narrative 🚫. We need some real accountability here 💪, like actual training and oversight for these officers 👮‍♂️. This kind of thing is just gonna keep happening if we don't address it head-on 💥.
 
Man, can you believe what's goin' on with those law enforcement agencies 🤯? It's like they think they're above the law or somethin'. I mean, I know some people got arrested for tryin' to cross the border without proper papers, but do they really have to use all that force? 🚫 There was this one video of a guy gettin' shot by an ICE agent and it looked like he wasn't even carryin' nothin', just walkin' down the street. Like, what's the deal with that? 💥 And these agents are sayin' they were in self-defense? 🤔 That don't add up. I'm worried about our safety, man. These agencies need to take responsibility for their actions and make sure we're protected by the people who are supposed to be helpin' us, not hurtin' us 😬
 
Ugh, can't believe this is happening again 🤕. These shootings are getting way too frequent and it's just heartbreaking to see people get hurt or worse 💔. I'm all for security, but come on, there gotta be better ways to handle situations than resorting to violence 🔫. And what really gets me is that some of these officers claim they were in self-defense, but from the vids, it doesn't look like that 🤷‍♂️. It's like we're living in a never-ending episode of "Law and Order" with real-life victims 😩. And have you seen the latest stats on police violence? It's just devastating...
 
I'm like, totally confused about these shootings... I mean, can't they just chill? 🤷‍♂️ Like, what's the deal with all these guys being shot or killed by ICE and CBP officers? It seems kinda extreme to me. But at the same time, I get why people might be scared and defensive if they're being attacked... but still, shouldn't there be some sort of protocol in place to de-escalate situations before things go this far? 🤔 And don't even get me started on the fact that some of these officers claimed self-defense, while others say it was just a random shooting... I mean, which one is true?! 🤷‍♂️ Can we just have a rational conversation about this without all the emotion and shouting? 😩
 
I'm telling ya, something fishy's goin' on here 🤔. These shooting incidents are just the tip of the iceberg, fam. If you look closely, there's a pattern emergin'. All these incidents happen to be in Minneapolis - it's like they're tryin' to make a statement or somethin'. And what's with all the ICE and CBP agents involved? It's like they're tryin' to create a narrative that these officers are just innocent victims. But I'm seein' some inconsistencies here... Like, why did Alex Pretti get shot by an ICE agent if he was just a nurse tryin' to do his job? And what about the video evidence that contradicts the officers' stories? It's like they're hidin' somethin'. I think we need to dig deeper into this, fam. There might be more to these incidents than meets the eye 🤑
