NEW YORK (TNND) \u2014 The New York Police Department on Friday released body-camera footage showing the first officers to arrive after a Dominican man was shot during an ICE-involved shooting <\/a>in Marble Hill.<\/p>\n

Officers said they responded to a 911 call for a man who had been shot and transported him to a hospital for medical care. The NYPD said Thursday that its officers were not involved<\/a> in the shooting involving federal law enforcement agents.<\/p>\n

In the footage, officers pull up moments after the shooting, with one saying a person has a gun. After they step out of their vehicle, bystanders can be heard shouting, \u201cThey shot him\u201d and \u201cICE shot him,\u201d while ICE officers handcuff 28-year-old Oscar Belgal as he sits on the ground.<\/p>\n

NYPD officers then lift and carry Belgal to their vehicle before transporting him to the hospital. As they leave the area, officers repeatedly tell him to \u201cput pressure\u201d on his wound.<\/p>\n

Federal officials later said Belgal was hit \u201csuperficially\u201d in the neck<\/a> by a bullet or bullet fragment. <\/p>\n

Marcos Charles, the acting executive associate director for Homeland Security Investigations, said Belgal was driving with a 5-year-old boy inside his car when he refused to leave the vehicle, accelerated into two ICE vehicles and then drove toward officers.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe officers, using their training and believing that their lives, the lives of their partners and the general public were in danger, fired their weapons,\u201d Charles said.<\/p>\n

Federal officials said ICE officers were conducting a targeted enforcement operation in the Bronx at about 4 p.m. to arrest Belgal, whom DHS said has a prior grand larceny conviction and previous arrests involving assault, robbery, drug possession and weapons possession.<\/p>\n

Belgal was arrested by the NYPD on Dec. 7, 2023, and released days later, officials said. DHS blamed New York\u2019s sanctuary policies for his release.<\/p>\n

Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin said Belgal was later moved to a detention facility outside New York because of his alleged criminal history and previous attempt to flee. He said DHS would seek to prosecute him and place him in removal proceedings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"NEW YORK (TNND) \u2014 The New York Police Department on Friday released body-camera footage showing the first officers…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":369047,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[9,56,63,65,64],"class_list":["post-369046","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-new-york-city","tag-new-york","tag-ny","tag-nyc","tag-nyc-headlines","tag-nyc-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/369046","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=369046"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/369046\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/369047"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=369046"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=369046"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=369046"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
