Venezuelan driver shot by ICE agent has surgery to remove bullet

Wilber Rafael Garces Perez, a 28-year-old Venezuelan delivery driver shot by a federal immigration agent in Austin, Texas, underwent surgery Thursday to remove a bullet lodged in his back for nearly two weeks. He remains in custody on charges of assaulting an officer during a Sept. 20 traffic stop, and faces up to 20 years in prison if convicted. The shooting has sparked protests against President Trump's immigration crackdown.
