ICE officer charged in Minneapolis shooting released from Texas jail, AP reports

ICE officer Christian Castro was released from a Brownsville, Texas jail after a judge rejected an immediate extradition request to Minnesota. Castro faces charges for shooting a Venezuelan man and lying about the incident during Operation Metro Surge in Minneapolis. While Minnesota sought his return to answer these charges, the court ruled he could not be held pending the request. Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison and Texas Governor Greg Abbott exchanged sharp criticisms regarding the legal proceedings.
