FBI search warrant alleges drugs found in van of man fatally shot by ICE in Houston.
An FBI search warrant alleges that bags containing a substance consistent with methamphetamine were found in the van driven by Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, who was fatally shot by an ICE agent in Houston. The warrant, unsealed days before his funeral, cites probable cause for drug distribution but does not specify who the bags belong to. ICE claims Araujo rammed a vehicle and tried to run over an officer, while advocates call the warrant release a smear campaign.
