DHS names detainee victims of shooting at Dallas ICE facility

One detainee was fatally shot and two others were injured when a gunman opened fire on the agency's field office.

DALLAS — A senior official at the Department of Homeland Security identified the three immigrant detainees who were victims in the shooting Wednesday at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in Dallas.

The senior DHS official familiar with the case told NBC News the three were Miguel Angel Garcia-Hernandez of Mexico, Jose Andres Bordones-Molina of Venezuela, and Norlan Guzman-Fuentes. DHS did not say what country Guzman-Fuentes was from.

DHS did not immediately respond to a request for comment on which of the men was killed, the extent of the injuries of the other two, and details about criminal allegations made against the men by the agency.

The men were wounded on Wednesday when a gunman who targeted ICE agents and employees opened fire on the agency’s field office in Dallas, federal officials said. No ICE agents were injured in the attack, but one detainee was fatally shot and two others were injured.
