A young father heading to work never made it there. He was shot dead by a federal immigration agent on a quiet Biddeford street corner.
The killing on Monday morning has convulsed the small Maine city, drawn condemnation from the state's congressional delegation, and reignited a national reckoning over the use of lethal force by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Advocacy groups have named the victim as a 26-year-old Colombian national who was authorised to work in the United States. Witnesses who watched the encounter unfold say what they saw was not law enforcement, but an execution.
