Story by Luke Barr, Jack Moore • 8h
An undocumented immigrant and a law enforcement officer were wounded when an officer fired shots during a targeted enforcement traffic stop in Los Angeles, according to federal officials.
The man had allegedly tried to "evade arrest" by using his car to ram a law enforcement vehicle, which prompted the officers to fire "defensive shots," striking the man in the elbow, a Department of Homeland Security official said Tuesday.
A deputy U.S. Marshal was also struck in the hand by a ricochet bullet, according to authorities.
Acting U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli identified the man involved in the alleged ramming as Carlitos Ricardo Parias, 44.
