Sylvia Garcia Gets Emotional While Describing Conversation With Man Who Witnessed ICE Shooting In TX

Published | Video Starts at 05:05

The ICE release said that the FBI was still investigating a assault to an agent. I asked them both about that, and they were just like, what? None of us touched him. And they said, well, what would that mean? I said, that would mean, like, I'm pushing the shoving. They said, no, we never touched them. He says they got out of their cars directly, went to the passenger side, pulled them out. And then while they were doing that, the one fellow who was the shooter shot at Mr. Salgalo. (05:05–05:13)
