The ICE agent who shot the Venezuelan man in Minneapolis was just arrested in Texas. [View all]

An ICE agent was arrested Friday in Texas after he was charged in Hennepin County, accused of shooting through the door of a Minneapolis residence and injuring a man during Operation Metro Surge.

Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension investigators located Christian J. Castro, 52, and traveled to Texas this week, according to the Hennepin County Attorney’s Office.

Agents from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security Office of the Inspector General and Texas Rangers arrested Castro, while BCA investigators were present. An attorney for Castro wasn’t listed in the court file as of Friday.

The Hennepin County Attorney’s Office charged Castro May 18 with four counts of second-degree assault with a deadly weapon and one count of falsely reporting a crime.
