flag ICE agent shot 23-year-old U.S. citizen Ruben Martinez in 2025; body cam footage disputes official account.

flag Body camera footage released in March 2026 shows the fatal shooting of 23-year-old U.S. citizen Ruben Ray Martinez by an ICE agent in South Padre Island, Texas, on March 15, 2025. flag The video depicts Martinez’s vehicle moving slowly after stopping near a crash scene, with no clear evidence of an officer being struck or on the hood. flag Attorneys for Martinez’s family dispute the federal claim that he intentionally ran over an agent, arguing the use of lethal force was unjustified. flag The incident, one of three known killings of U.S. citizens by federal immigration agents during President Trump’s second term, remained undisclosed for over a year. flag A Texas grand jury declined to indict the agent, and Martinez’s mother, a self-proclaimed Trump supporter, has called for accountability and reform.
