On October 8, 2026, an ICE agent shot 28-year-old Oscar Bergal (or Belgal) during a 'targeted enforcement operation' in the Marble Hill neighborhood of the Bronx. According to authorities, Bergal was in an SUV with his 5-year-old son when plainclothes federal agents attempted to block his vehicle and arrest him. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) claims Bergal 'weaponized his vehicle,' while surveillance footage shows agents approaching with guns drawn and smashing a window before Bergal drove away. Bergal was struck in the neck by one of seven rounds fired and was hospitalized in stable condition before being transferred to federal custody. The incident sparked local protests and drew sharp criticism from New York City and state officials regarding ICE's tactics in residential areas.
