Araujo, driving a white van with passengers to a worksite, was not the target of a targeted enforcement operation. ICE alleged he weaponized the vehicle and attempted to ram an officer; passengers through their attorney dispute this account. Family members and local leaders call for an independent investigation amid a vigil, while Border Czar Tom Homan states agents will face accountability if warranted.
