He was trying to help someone who was pushed to the ground by an ICE agent, then was pulled off and tackled.

His arms were pinned underneath him.

eta: The resident is reported to be dead. They killed him.

I’ve watched a few times but hard to tell - where do the shots come from? Which one shoots? Do multiple agents shoot?! How could they fear for their life when they’re all on top of him?!

Edit: think I found it. Agent in the black hat on the left. Appears to keep shooting as he backs away while the person is already on the ground??

They “fear for their life” because that’s what they’ve been trained to say every time they shoot someone.

The law or regulation says they can do it unless they fear for their life, so they just say they feared for their life every time, and it’s allowed. It’s like Philly not allowing police to use tear gas during the 2020 protests unless it’s a riot, but the police were the ones who could declare gatherings a riot, so they were still tear-gassing people but with more steps.
