An off-duty employee of an Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention center in Aurora, Colorado, was arrested on Thursday after allegedly shooting a protester. The arrest follows a string of high-profile incidents across the country involving immigration officials firing on members of the public.
Brandon Booth, 42, an employee of the government contractor GEO Group, was allegedly waiting in his vehicle with coworkers near the privately run Aurora ICE Processing Center on Thursday night after protesters impeded their ability to start work at the 1,500-bed detention center.
