Christian Castro, a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent, was arrested in Texas after being charged with four counts of second‑degree assault and false reporting related to a Minneapolis shooting.

    1. The men and women of ICE are entrusted with upholding the rule of law and are held to the highest standards of professionalism, integrity, and ethical conduct. Violations of this sacred sworn oath will not be tolerated.
    2. Lying under oath is a serious federal offense. The U.S. Attorney's Office is actively investigating these statements. Upon conclusion of the investigation, the officers may face disciplinary action, including termination of employment, as well as potential criminal prosecution.
    1. Today's arrest is a critical step forward in our prosecution of Mr. Castro.
    1. Christian Castro's alleged shooting of Julio Sosa-Celis appears unwarranted, as evidenced by the lies Castro told his ICE supervisors to justify his unlawful actions.
    2. In Minnesota, we believe in equal justice under the law. That means nobody is above the law, including agents of the federal government.
    1. Our city was invaded, and people were shot. Now it must be clear – nobody is above the law, including ICE.
