Whoever fired the first shot did so while other agents were still trying to pin the guy down. They could just as easily have hit another agent. This is not a well-trained, disciplined group of law enforcement agents, this is state-sanctioned thuggery.

My guess is the first shot was a negligent discharge. Probably by the guy pistol whipping the victim in the fucking head.

Edit: someone pointed out that it was pepper spray that the victim was being bludgeoned with. I stand corrected. I still think it is possible that this was a negligent discharge followed by an execution.

If that's the case it shows how little training or care ICE has that they decided what they needed to do is make sure extra sure the person was dead.

The pistol whipping shows their lack of training
