Zohran Mamdani has called US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) 'rotten to its core' after an ICE officer shot and wounded 28-year-old Oscar Belgal during an enforcement operation in Marble Hill, New York City, on Thursday, 8 October.
Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin accused Mamdani of using dangerous rhetoric, while federal officials said officers opened fire after Belgal allegedly drove his vehicle towards them. The circumstances of the shooting remain under scrutiny.
