DETROIT — A federal law enforcement agent shot and killed a man Monday on Detroit’s northwest side , WWJ reports.
WWJ reports that the agent with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), was part of a joint federal task force that was serving an armed robbery warrant in the 9500 block of Evergreen near W. Chicago around 1 p.m.
WWJ reports that Detroit Police Chief James Craig said the ICE agent, who shot the man, about 20, was “responding to a threat.” He did not immediately elaborate. It was unclear if the man was armed.
WWJ’s Russ McNamara reported that Craig was “trying to calm” neighbors at the scene who were demanding answers. Craig promised a thorough investigation.
“Let us do our job. We’ll do it as quick as we can. I don’t want this to be a two, three-month (investigation),” Craig said.
