Minnesota prosecutor asks Texas to extradite ICE agent to face charges in shooting case

A Minnesota prosecutor is asking Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) to authorize the extradition of a federal officer who shot and injured an immigrant in Minneapolis in January.

Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty said in a letter to Abbott that his sign-off is the “final step” in transferring Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer Christian Castro to Minnesota to face state criminal charges.
