The ICE agent who opened fire in Minneapolis Wednesday was dragged 50 yards by an illegal migrant in Minnesota last June after his arm was trapped inside the vehicle during a traffic stop, The Post can reveal.
The attack on the officer, whom The Post is not naming, happened June 17 in Bloomington, Minnesota when ICE agents conducted a traffic stop on Roberto Carlos Munoz-Guatemala, a serial illegal immigrant with a lengthy rap sheet with charges including domestic assault and sex crimes against an underage teenager, according to records.
As officers approached his car, Munoz-Guatemala refused to exit his vehicle and sped away with the ICE agent caught in the window.
The agent was hospitalized but made a full recovery, DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement at the time.
Munoz-Guatemala was arrested and charged with assaulting the officer and was convicted by a federal jury last month.
A defense attorney for Munoz-Guatemala didn’t immediately return a request for comment Thursday.
The agent, who has not been publicly identified, fired three shots — killing Renee Nicole Good, 37 — on Wednesday after she drove her car toward him during an altercation on the street.
DHS Secretary Kristi Noem said that the officer was justified in opening fire.
