Nearly 12 hours after an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer fatally shot a 26-year-old father in Maine, the Department of Homeland Security finally responded, claiming the man was “an illegal alien” shot after attempting to “flee the scene” in his vehicle.

At 6:40 p.m. ET Monday, DHS acknowledged the deadly shooting on X and said an ICE officer “fearing for public safety” shot a the man driving the vehicle around 7 a.m. ET while “conducting targeted surveillance” on an undocumented immigrant’s last known address

The man, identified as Joan Sebastian Guerrero, is a Colombian native who had been living in the coastal city of Biddeford, Maine, with an authorized work visa and Social Security number, according to Maine Immigrants Rights, a local immigration advocacy group.

Protesters in the area have reacted with devastation and anger, holding vigils and demanding accountability from DHS.

But it took anti-ICE communists only a few seconds to comment, blame, and demand.

Oh yeah, a 26-yo Colombian, “FATHER”.

Always pick words to garner sympathy.

I’m surprised they didn’t describe him as a “Mainiac father”.  Guess descriptors for Maine citizen aren’t real good.  We had our “Marylander father”.

26 is hardly long enough to be a real father.  Sire, yes, many times over, likely.  Show me how wonderful a father he is.
